Questions

Why do the formulas disagree?

Each was fitted to different data for a different purpose, as a base weight at 5 feet plus a fixed amount per inch. None considers frame size, muscle or age.

Which one should I use?

None exactly. The healthy BMI range shown underneath is a wider and more widely used guide; the formulas are useful mainly for comparison.

Do they work for short heights?

They were made for people over 5 feet (152 cm). Below that the results are extrapolations and much less meaningful.

Is it free? Do I need an account?

It is free to use and there is nothing to sign up for. There are no watermarks and no daily limits.
