this depends on body mass index or bmi, you can download the scale in website related to this. try www.gogles.com and search for BMI

There are standard weights for heights. If you are more than 2SD from the average or more than the 95th percentile, you are overweight.

Take some time and look up BMI Body Mass Index, it is really how you carry your weight that counts.

Example: I use to tumble competitively for over 10 years. Most of my weight is muscle and I'm a medium build. I'm 5'4" and look horrible if I get under 126.

5'4" 240 pounds
