Height = 169.5

BMI = 21.8

 

[ryles]

so far

fattest prick ~ ryles {23.4}
skinniest prick ~ raider_69 {21.8}

but we're both actually normal

20 or less - underweight
20-25 - normal
25-30 - overweight
30 or more - obese

That is a pretty inaccurate way of working out your BMI just quietly.

 

[Raider_69]

its a dodgy system as it dosnt account for the fact that mucle weighs more than fat

 

[ryles]

who gives a shit

nike ~ just do it

 

[Twizzle]

25 and its all muscle

 

[Ron Jeremy]

It's a stupid system, the pinch fold test is alot more accurate.

If you go to the gym often?, stay away from the bmi test.

 

[Jess]

According to this and my weight right now, 20.3

P.S - what's the point of this?

 

[ryles]

to see how fat everyone is

 

[Jess]

to see how fat everyone is

Haha...it only tells you how much people weigh in relation to their height

 

[Ron Jeremy]

Well according to the test i'm overweight, however i reckon i'm the leanest person on this board, my fat level from the skin fold test is very low.

 

[ryles]

well it tells you about their frames

 

[Martli]

Yeah BMI's are dumb, I got 28.1, and yes I am overweight, but i'm not hugely overweight and I do exercise and eat properlly. But even if I weighed 5 kgs less (what I asume is about my optimum weight) i'd still be classed as overweight.

I had a BMI of 32.6 a year ago :s.

so far

fattest prick ~ martli {28.1}

[Martli]

Thanks mate :lol:.

 

[astrogirl]

Yep, BMIs are only a very rough measure of whether a person is overweight or underweight.

Nonetheless, mine is 22.3

I'm getting more fit at the moment. If I lose another 5 kg then my BMI will be 20.3

 

[ryles]

lol

i know its innacurate, but its still interesting

 

[Phillips]
