Question: What is a healthy weight for a 5'7 Male.


Answers: What is a healthy weight for a 5'7 Male.

I'm 5' 8" and weigh 162 lbs., and that's all muscle. But according to the BMI chart I'm borderline overweight. Those charts tend to be inaccurate when it comes to very active individuals. It sounds like you're built, so if you are pretty active then you should be fine if you weigh less than 200. Past that then you're too big, imo.

Are you lean or chubby? A better way to know is try to grab a handful of fat at your midsection. If you get a handful or more you could stand to loose a bit. i would say 178 -198 but thats based on the stupid BMI.

well, im same height as you. and i weight 134.
i dont look fat or skinny. i think my weight is good like between 125-145 is healthy
