To estimate BMI:
A. locate the point on the chart where height and weight intersect
B. Read the number on the dashed line closest to this point. For example, if you weigh 69 kg and are 173 cm tall, you have a BMI of approximately 23, which is in Zone B.
You can calculate your BMI using this formula:BMI = weight(kg)/height(m2).
