No. 9.5 stone means nine and a half stone, which is 9 stone 7 pounds, or 60.33 kg. Nine stone 5 pounds is 59.42 kg.

The two are easy to mix up because we are used to decimals that work in tens. A stone has 14 pounds, so half of one is 7 pounds.

Is 9 stone a healthy weight for your height?

For most adults, 9 stone is a healthy weight if you are between about 5 feet and 5 feet 9 tall. In that range, 57.15 kg gives a body mass index from 18.5 to 24.9.

BMI is weight in kilograms divided by height in metres squared. Here is the result for 9 stone at different heights:

HeightBMI at 9 stoneRange
150 cm (4 ft 11)25.4Overweight
155 cm (5 ft 1)23.8Healthy
160 cm (5 ft 3)22.3Healthy
165 cm (5 ft 5)21.0Healthy
170 cm (5 ft 7)19.8Healthy
175 cm (5 ft 9)18.7Healthy
180 cm (5 ft 11)17.6Underweight
185 cm (6 ft 1)16.7Underweight

These ranges are for adults only. Children and teenagers are assessed with growth charts that take age and sex into account, so a 9 stone teenager cannot be judged from this table. The figures do not apply during pregnancy either.

What if 9 stone is underweight for your height?

If you are taller than about 5 feet 9, a weight of 9 stone gives a BMI under 18.5, which is classed as underweight. This is worth taking seriously, in the same way as being overweight.

At 5 feet 11, the bottom of the healthy range is about 59.9 kg. Nine stone is 2.8 kg below that. At 6 feet 1, the healthy range starts at 63.3 kg, so 9 stone is around 6 kg below.

Being underweight can affect energy levels, bone strength and the immune system. Some people are naturally slim and perfectly well, but if your weight has dropped without you trying, or you feel tired or unwell, see your GP. They can check for causes and suggest safe ways to reach a healthy weight.

How does 9 stone compare with the average woman in England?

Nine stone is well below the average. National health survey figures put the average woman in England at around 72 kg, which is roughly 11 stone 5.

That is a gap of about 15 kg, or 2 stone 5 pounds. The average man weighs around 85 kg, which is about 28 kg more than 9 stone.

These averages include a large share of adults who are above the healthy BMI range, so they are not a guide to what you should weigh. Your height tells you far more than a national figure does.

Where does 9 stone turn up in sport?

Nine stone is the upper limit for featherweight boxers. The class stops at 126 pounds, which is 57.15 kg.

Amateur and Olympic boxing use metric classes, and one of them is 57 kg, almost the same weight. Horse racing is another place you will hear it. Jockeys on the flat often ride at around 8 to 9 stone, and racecards in Britain still show these weights in stone and pounds.

For anyone training for a weigh-in, the lesson is the same. Convert once, use the exact kilogram figure, and check it on the official scales.

How heavy is 9 stone in everyday terms?

What does 9 stone mean in the gym?

At 9 stone, lifting your own body weight means lifting about 57.5 kg. Gym plates are marked in kilograms, so it helps to know how to load that.

On a standard 20 kg bar, add a 15 kg plate, a 2.5 kg plate and a 1.25 kg plate to each side. That comes to 57.5 kg. Exercises such as pull-ups and dips also move your full body weight, so each one is a 57 kg lift. Treadmills and rowing machines ask for your weight in kilograms to estimate the calories you burn, and typing 57 is close enough for that.
