Frequently Asked Questions
The U.S. Army sets maximum weight limits based on height, gender, and age. This calculator uses simplified standard tables to determine if you meet the requirements.
For males, the formula is approximately: base weight (132-144 lbs) + (height in inches * 2.5). For females: base weight (120-132 lbs) + (height in inches * 2.2). Base weight increases with age.
If you exceed the standard, you may need to undergo body fat assessment. This calculator only checks the weight-for-height table.
