This is a new BMI calculation formula designed by Professor Lloyd N. Trefazen.
The standard BMI formula tends to classify shorter people as underweight and taller people as obese. To correct for this, Professor Lloyd N. Trefazen, a mathematician at the University of Oxford in the UK, proposed a new formula in 2013:
1.3 × Weight (kg) ÷ Height (m)².²⁵
will be used for the calculation.
*Regarding height, since it will be converted to meters (m) during the calculation, please enter your height in centimeters (cm) in the formula below.

will be used for the calculation.

| BMI | |
| Healthy Weight (BMI 22) | kg |
| Ideal Weight (BMI 20) | kg |
| Model Weight (BMI 18) | kg |
| BMI Calculated Using the Conventional Formula | |
| Ideal Weight (BMI 22) Based on the Conventional Formula | kg |
| Ideal Weight (BMI 20) Calculated Using the Conventional Formula | kg |
| Model weight (BMI 18) calculated using the conventional formula | kg |
The calculated values can be evaluated using the conventional BMI guidelines: “18.5–24.9 is normal,” “below 18.5 is underweight,” “25–29.9 is overweight,” and “30 or higher is obese.”
I believe that taller or shorter people who use this tool will find it provides a reasonable and ideal goal for their weight loss efforts.
