Ideal weight formulas estimate a target weight based solely on height and sex. Multiple formulas exist (Robinson, Miller, Devine, Hamwi) and typically give similar but not identical results. No single formula is universally accepted — the "ideal" weight also depends on muscle mass, bone density, and individual health.

Pro Tip
A healthy BMI range (18.5–24.9) often gives a more useful target weight window than any single formula. For someone 5'10", that is 129–174 lbs.

Did You Know?
The Devine formula was originally created in 1974 for drug dosing calculations — not for health goals. It has since been widely adopted as a rough weight reference despite this origin.
