Determining the normal height and weight of human being is
an exercise in futility. Not only is it virtually impossible to tell, but the
results will also be faulty since the basis upon which they would have been
made will be twisted. However, this is not to say that we cannot estimate the
normal height and weight of an individual. What comes out of such a study is
the fact that different people from different societies usually have different
measures for normal height and weight. For instance, the Chinese are usually
considered to be especially short while the Americans and other European
societies like the Germans are particularly tall. This means that the normal
height and weight in Germany is bound to differ greatly from the normal height
and weight in China. As such, the question of what the normal height and weight
of the normal human being is, is an age old question that has over the years
baffled both people within the fitness and health industry as well as those
without. However, in as much as the debate has been ongoing for quite a while,
there has been neither a conclusive statement on this matter nor research to
prove otherwise.
The height and weight of an individual are usually
interrelated in a way. In the calculation of the BMI of an individual a
person’s height is normally measured in relation to his or her height. Most
women are short by nature; that means that it is expected that most of the
women have low weights. On the other hand, their male counterparts are normally
taller than most of the women. As such, this means that the men are naturally
expected to be much heavier in relation to the women in their environment.
You can also determine the ideal body weight for women or
for a particular woman by considering the waist circumference. The human body
has been known for storing fat around the waist line. By measuring the waist
circumference, it means that you are able to take into account the amount of
fat that has been stored by the body, which can go a long way in helping you
determine whether your weight is ideal or not. Excess fat around the
circumference usually places the individual at a higher risk of getting heart
disease or diabetes, which can kick off a series of medical problems.
Measuring your body fat is another way of determining
whether the weight that you have is the ideal weight for women. There are
scales that are purposely built for this purpose, to measure the amount of fat
that a person has in his or her body. By determining the amount of fat in the
body, it is possible to calculate whether your body weight is your ideal
weight. Often, you can get your doctor to advise you on whether additional
measurements that may include blood pressure, resting heart rate and blood
cholesterol as well as fat and glucose tests are necessary. These tests usually
provide a much clearer view of the ideal weight of the individual. The lean
tissue of the body like the muscle and the blood usually contain water
therefore acting as conductors of the electrical signal. On the other hand, the
fat in the body resists the electrical signals.
With all these information in the know it now becomes much
easier to clearly consider the particular parameters that affects the weight of
an individual. This is the essence of the whole discussion that rotates around
the ideal weight for women.
We cannot ignore the factors that come into play when the
normal height and weight of an individual are taken into account. On the other
hand, we should not close our minds to the reality that there are other factors
that come into play when the weight of an individual is taken into
consideration. That being said, the importance of the weight of an individual
in relation to his or her height and health in general cannot be stressed
enough. As such, you should gather as much information as possible regarding
your particular situation to help you better handle your weight.
