AGE AND WEIGHT: TRUTH AND FICTION

Age and weight: truth and fiction
Standards of female beauty changed throughout centuries. Long time the woman «in a body» was considered as an ideal, completeness was a health symbol, thin young ladies associated with morbidity. But in 20 century all has cardinally exchanged and for today as the beautiful consider thin persons, they look at us from screens and from height of podiums. Actually, the girl is beautiful, if it is in harmony with herself and the body, and first of all and with weight.

Our organism quickly grows in teenage age, growth, and together with it and weight promptly changes. Therefore, for definition of the ideal relation of weight to growth the age is not considered. After all the girl-teenager having strong bones, and the developed muscles will weigh more girlfriends of the same age, but with weak muscles and an easy skeleton.

Many Young girls wrongly consider that superfluous kgs are inherent in them that fatally influences a self-estimation and there is unduly critical relation to and the body. Trying to correct a nonexistent problem by Unbalanced diets it is easy to receive a serious illness: an anorexia. The organism grows, especially at the age of 15-18 years, and receives less nutrients and groups of vitamins at the expense of what the muscular weight is lost, growth of bones is slowed down, will be broken sexual development. Therefore it is very important to approach accurately at Teenage age to a weight question.

To calculate the Optimum weight completely not difficult, for this purpose we will use Formuloj Broka. For calculations it is necessary to measure the weight and growth (it is measured in centimetres). From growth size it is necessary to take away 100. For example, at growth of 164 centimetres in optimum weight 64 kgs will be considered. At first sight, it seems mnogovato for this reason at calculation it is necessary to consider a structure of the body also.

If the Girl graceful and fragile, with thin brushes of hands, small ankles, with slaborazvitoj muscles from the result received at calculation it is necessary to take away five percent. We recalculate: 64 kgs - 5 % it is received 60,8 kg.

It is necessary to add that the Formula of optimum weight is actual for girls low and medium height - to 1 metre of 70 centimetres. If growth is equal to 170 centimetres or above it at calculations it is necessary to take away 105, instead of 100 taking into account that a constitution normal.

For a fragile constitution, and growth above 170 centimetres it is necessary not only to take away from growth 105, instead of 100, but also in the end to take away still a minus of 5 percent.

For a large constitution and growth above 170 centimetres it is necessary to take away from size of growth 105, instead of 100, and in the end to add plus of 5 %.

The size received by means of Formuly Broka is necessary for correcting finally taking into account age. For girls till 25 years from the received index it is necessary to take away 10 percent. In our example it is received at growth of 164 centimetres, at a normal constitution - a minus 100 and the minus of 10 %, optimum weight will be equal 53,6 kgs.

The method of calculation of ideal weight was offered by scientist Brejtman. It is necessary to add 1,4 circles of a breast to 0,35 lengths of a body and to take away from the received value 115.

What itself represents normal weight? It differs from optimum for 5 percent towards increase or reduction. For example, after calculation on Broku or Brejtmanu we have received optimum weight of 53,6 kg. The weight of a body from 50,92 kg to 56,28 kg will be considered as normal weight in this case. And here the exit for these frameworks will already mean presence of problems:

From 6 to 14 percent - presence of small Excess weight;

From 15 to 29 percent - such excess of weight speaks about presence of adiposity of 1st degree;

From 30 to 49 percent - adiposity of 2nd degree;

From 50 to 99 percent - adiposity of 3rd degree;

From 100 percent and above - adiposity of 4th degree.

For today for girls it is considered to be medium height 1 metre of 64 centimetres, for young men - 1 metre of 76 centimetres, young men grow till 19-22 years, and the girl till 17-19. Most intensively Girls grow at the age from 10 till 16 years, during this period it is important to watch conformity of weight - to growth.

It is necessary to notice that growth directly is connected with puberty. Often happens that the organism at first types weight, and then after it starts to grow and in height, or, on the contrary, at high growth some leanness is observed. For teenagers this normal phenomenon - it is not necessary at once to rush to type weight or to grow thin. Anyway, first of all it is necessary to consult with the doctor.
