BMI is useless. Focus on bodyfat % instead.

[5speed]

BMI=23.7

My weight was 195 about 5 months ago or so. I took sugar out of my diet and lost 15lbs in 1 month, sounds crazy huh? I worked more off until I was 170lbs. Then gained muscle mass and now weight 180lbs at 6ft and 1 inch.

[Firefightin_tC]

I'm consider obese...that's funny.


6'2" and 274 pounds.

Then again there are so many factors to this that are just off.

Eat a balanced diet, stay away from sodas and juices, do cardio, but stay below your Anaerobic Threshold so that you burn fat calories and not sugar/carb. Strength training also helps.

[KevinT707]

20.7 here

[cm7k24]

9% with only 13 lb of body fat :)

[Jello!]

BMI = 16.7

[tnomud]

23.7

[BlkCD5]

21.9

[Mchnhead2k5]

30.1... I was 275 about 1.5yrs ago now I'm 225.

BlkCD5 looks like that dog is trying to help his owner with weight loss. :)

Correct, in theory.

You will burn a higher % of carbohydrates vs. fat as fuel as you increase intensity and near or surpass your lactate threshold, but if you do the math on the total # of calories burned: you burn more fat calories at a higher intensity (and weight loss comes from Net caloric balance, no matter the type of fuel used)

BTW: BMI is useless. All health professionals will admit to this fact, but it is used in general because it is the easiest way to statistically analyze a large group of people. Measuring body fat % through hydrostatic weighing or DEXA (or even skinfold calipers) is the best way to determine the "status" of your health as it relates to your body composition, but on a large scale it is very time consuming and very cost prohibitive.

FWIW my BMI is 27.7 (overweight) but I am 8% body fat and in excellent shape. BMI does not take lean tissue into account whatsoever. It's simply height (meters squares)/weight (kilograms squared)

[neon_ert3]

im 5'5 218. 68lbs over weight LOLZ
Body Mass Index: 36.4 kg/m2
Waist-to-Height ratio: 0.52
Percent Body Fat: 13.4%
Lean Body Mass: 188.8 lb

If your BMI is 25 or greater, and your Waist-to-Height ratio is less than 0.5 and your Percent Body Fat is in the "athlete" or "fitness" category, you are probably muscular and not fat.
