BMI is total crap for people who are active, IE, lift weights and have muscle. It says I'm overweight (5'10", 178lbs). Fvck that

BMI = 27. Yeah, thats a bit high, but I think it sounds pretty good considering I was over 40 a year ago. ;)

91 percentile, it says I'm obese. I'm 6'5" 265 lbs and make a better door than a window; how does that make me obese? I'm probably only about 25 lbs overweight, hardly alot for someone my size.

6' 190 lbs. 26.5.

Yet my BF% is 13%

Like someone else said, this thing is useless for people with a muscular build.

I'm about 10 pounds over weight, but that's about it. 73", 220 pounds. My "ideal weight" is 189 lbs. I'd be a stick. :Q

damn, i don't understand how some of you people get upset over a stupid internet test. if anyone knows how (un)healthy you are, it's you and not some stupid formula that plugs in numbers :confused:

You do have a point. I've gone back to the gym. Ten whole days in a row now. :cool: Been on the treadmill, getting the old ticker back in shape. I've lost four pounds already. *pats self on back*
