Min & Max

Umm, not sure, but think you may have misunderstood the standards (they are based on BMI).

At 174cm height, the minimum weight is 64kg and the max is 76kg.

For a male you would be very athletic if you weighed less than 64kgs - you should be fine.

The whole purpose of the BMI HT/WT ratio is really to determine high risk of heart disease - the BMI is not a indicator on its own, but is taken into account amongst other factors.

Cheer up, you'll fly though it!
