About this calculator
Convert kilograms to pounds and back for body weight, luggage limits, and gym plates. Enter either unit and get the instant conversion, with stone included for good measure since UK sources still use it.
One kilogram equals 2.20462 pounds. For mental math, double the kilos and add ten percent — 70 kg doubles to 140, plus 14, giving 154 lb against the true 154.3.
Tip: Airlines weigh luggage in kilograms in Canada but pounds in the US — a 23 kg checked-bag limit is 50.7 lb, so that "50 lb" rule of thumb keeps you just under.
