As Clive shows, muscle weighs more than fat, and since the only measurements taken to calculate BMI is weight and height, guys that are ripped as hell can be considered morbidly obese. And to see some of this in action, take a look at <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/77367764@N00/sets/72157602199008819/" rel="nofollow">this</a>, which shows what real people look like and their BMI category. <br /><br />If you want a real way to track your "health" other than just how you feel, go get a body fat percentage check.Stouthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16267476063892076584noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5812750288811901406.post-21013957331390141702010-05-06T07:55:12.686+01:002010-05-06T07:55:12.686+01:00BMI is generally bollocks mate, take the pro rugby...BMI is generally bollocks mate, take the pro rugby players at my club. All of the forwards would fall into the "obese" category and most of the back would be overweight. Let me tell you they're all amazingly fit athletes and I wouldn't tell them they're overweight!Clive Chapmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11085791760784493200noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5812750288811901406.post-49966917136052117122010-05-05T22:29:27.256+01:002010-05-05T22:29:27.256+01:00I think mate we can get ourselves in a state over ...I think mate we can get ourselves in a state over BMI but it comes down to how we feel about our self well thats wot I think mate<br /><br />I think ure doing realy well mateyLes Bealeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15093130887847326361noreply@blogger.com
