Just curious but I've been told I'm underweight for my size...

I'm 1.7m tall but only weigh 59.5Kg, I don't look skinny or anything so I'm just wondering what is the average weight for a male that height?

I am also around there.
I'm not skinny, nor very built although I am like 5cm shorter.
I would say you are underweight if you were under 55kgs and I calculate you BMI to be 20.5 although BMI is flawed but you're fine
 
IMO, just from the sound of it, it does seem a tad underweight for a man, but not seriously so. Not meaning to be nasty to you or anything...

Google "Body Mass Index" and you wil be able to get an accurate indication.
 
Cool, thanx :)

Edit - Did the BMI thing just before I started thread ;)
 
BMI's are better for woman i believe. For men it is sometimes a bit of a joke TBH.
 
Hey I'm about 1.87 meters and weigh 65 so I think you're fine.
