5 ft 10 . . . 10 stone . . . overweight , what does it say about thier health?

If sombody has just turned 17, 5 foot 10 and is 10 stone what does it say about there health ?

(a friend)

Yes very attractive and a lad.

If they are a bloke there is no problem. I was that weight when I was 17 and county karate champion.

10 stone at 5' 10' is so not overweight, I would say they were probably a very attractive person

depends where it is - hanging off their gut is not so good

Depends on the bone structure and muscle tone, need more data.

for the love of good. Overweight at 10 stone and 5 ft 10??
tell your friend/or you whichever, not to look at those stupid charts that tell you you're obese/overweight etc if you weigh more than 8 stone. They are not accurate. A lot of things need to be taken in to consideration.
sounds to me like this person is perfectly in proportion.

definately not overweight....i'm 5 ft 7 and about 10 1/2 but i'm a size 10 - 12 and very happy with my weight....overweight my ****

Exercise! Believe me, it's the only way to have a fit body. Along with regular exercise, you may also control your food intake with Weight Loss/Hoodia sample. These will help develop firmer muscles, while you burn fats and shed off those extra pounds. Check out this site http://www.upkb.com/weightloss.php for more info.

If anything, at 5ft 10, 10stone is underweight. My hubby is 6ft 4 and 17 stone. The medical charts say he should be 12-14 stone, but he is very broad, and if he weighed that he would look ill. Ignore the charts, look at the overall health. Do they play sports or do they sit on the sofa all day? A bad diet can depleat muscle, so although they may only be 10 stone, they may have a high proportion of body fat as opposed to muscle. Get active and stop worrying about the medical books!!!

I would guess that 10stone is about the right weight for that height. I know the recommended weight for that height for a boy is 65kgs so if you can convert that to stone its 10st 7lbs. So the accepted weight range for this height is 9st 7lbs to 11st 7lbs dependant on build using current centile charts.
Its really common for teenage boys at this age to be slightly underweight and big eaters as they are still doing an enormous amount of growing and the body needs as much fuel as it can to do this without compromising other functions.

10 Stone is not over weight, if anything he could add a little on.

It's says they are absolutely fine and not overweight in any shape or form. They have a BMI of 20.1 which is ideal, so they need to stop worrying. HTH : )

bigger problems in the future so sort them out know and it will get easier
