Synopsis: Average height to weight ratio chart for teenage boys in Metric and Imperial measurements. A teenage boys body goes through many changes in a very short time span. The teen years for males are characterized by growth spurts, puberty, as well as hormonal fluctuations. All of these factors, and many others, can affect a teen boys weight and height measurement.

Introduction

The weight-to-height ratio measurement in teenage males serves as just a single factor in assessing whether their weight aligns with a healthy average for their height. However, this measurement does not consider individual variations in body types and muscle mass. Its primary function is to provide a recommended range of body weight that is considered ideal for male teenagers.

As boys generally start puberty around age 11 to 12 and end around 16 to 17, teenage boys will often have growth spurts during their growing years in which your body will grow faster than at any other time in your life. During this period, it is possible to gain and lose weight rapidly and add inches to your height - seemingly overnight. Growth not only involves the length and weight of your body, but also includes internal growth and development.

NOTE: If you are older than 20 you will need to refer to our Adults Height to Weight Chart.

Every teenage male is different in how they mature and grow during their teen years. Dieting for male teenagers is not recommended, as quite often you will find boys will simply "grow out" of their "baby fat" as they mature into young adults. Typically, by the time they reach 18 years of age, the height of a teen boy has approximately doubled compared to when they were 2 years old.
