Normal Blood Test Reference Chart/Ideal Body Weight Calculator

[onemuscledbeagle]

Hey Guys
Many of you on this board and others have had questions regarding normal ranges of blood work that you may be getting a couple times a year. Here is a reference chart for you to take a look at. Also, I have included the calculation of Ideal Body Weight that is commonly used by insurance companys and the like to say that you are obese. The Ideal Body Weight calculation and Body Mass Index should be challenged in the cases of being denied insurance with a Body Composition Test. Hope this helps.

how do you exactly use the ideal BW formula.

i'm confused
