2. BMI – Body Mass Index
If you are still unsure as to if you are overweight, one of the simplest measurements you can make is using the BMI. BMI stands for Body Mass Index and it compares your body weight in kilograms to your height in meters squared. There are simple online calculators to utilize, but if your BMI is between 25-29.9, then you are overweight. Any BMI above 30 means you are obese. If you are a muscular or athletic person and workout every day of the week, this method will not be for you, as your muscle mass is not taken into consideration in this measurement.
