"Medical ideal weight" sounds like a total bull**** concept
With all due respect, that's spoken like someone with a BMI of greater than
35 who's in a bit of denial.
along the lines
of the Body Mass Index, which is really nothing more than the old "weight
charts" our grandparents and great grandparents might have seen.
Your height and weight doesn't provide nearly enough information to make a
determination about one's health. It obviously depends on the type of body
you have, where you are carrying the weight on that body, and the type of
life you lead. There are a great many professional athletes in the same
proportion as 6"1 and 220.
OK, then. What's your waist to hip ratio?
