Determine your body fitness

[sara22]

Hello,

Determine your body fitness = calculating your BMI "In my opinion"

so what is BMI ?
Body Mass Index (BMI) can be used to indicate if you are overweight, obese, underweight or normal. It will, however, overestimate fatness in people who are muscular or atheletic. Because of these problems, this body mass index calculator shows extra statistics to help you be informed and judge your own body compared to others of the same height and age.


How can i determine My BMI ?
you can determine it with easy step with bmi calculator sites like this one >>> body mass index

My BMI is ..... what about it ?
Women tend to believe they look their best at values between 20 to 22 and men are usually satisfied with a BMI of 23 to 25. If your BMI is between 17 to 22, your life expectancy is longer than average. You don't need to lose weight.
If your BMI is between 23 and 25, you are not considered overweight by most people. But if your BMI is 26 or more, that's not good. But you knew that already.


what about BMI world statics ?

I knew guys into bodybuilding in the Marines that were considered "obese" by these standards and had to get waivers to not be reprimanded for being "overweight".

Most Bbers get declined health insurance if the company uses BMI as part of its qualifying process. It is not designed for the muscular body.

Agreed.

BMI is for an average man, and NOT a bodybuilder. My BMI says I'm obese, but my BF% ranges between 5%-7% <----far from obese.
