What is the proper bmi and weight for a 17 year old girl that is 5 foot 7 inches tall? (not skinny, shaped like an amazon woman?

The common BMI for a 17 yo woman is a range, generally from 18-27 with the desired BMI of 19-23. Body mass will vary in many due to variations in muscularity & skeletal frame. As an indicator it assumes all persons have an identical composition of all these factors. As such its use as a guide must be limited/modified to the individual.
