My BMI is 16.2. 5'9" at 110Lbs.

(I have no muscle or fat on me at all.)

Bump having become obsessed with BMI of late.

6ft and 65kg (19.4 BMI).

I was previously classified as underweight and a bit below 18.5 BMI a month ago, but a regime of pasta/chicken three times a day extra, a few protein shakes and some light resistance training and i'm steadily gaining weight.

Gaining weight for me was all about regular small meals, just takes a little willpower.

Underweight = <18.5
Normal weight = 18.5-24.9
Overweight = 25-29.9

im currently sitting on Underweight 24.6. meaning im coming up to overweight.

The problem is, i'm really not. This BMI doesnt really work out for people who work out. Im 5 10 and weight 78kg (171lb). Im fairly skinny tbh, and i'm not fat as my overall body fat percentage is around 11.5%

24.5

I'm pretty slim and 6'3". BMI is a load of crap. Don't pay any attention to it.

I will refuse to use the muscles excuse, despite that being the case

29.4

175cm
90kg

I'm pretty well built with a little bit of a belly, certainly not obese as BMI would have you believe.

sist_si · 11 Jul 2007 at 10:16

Mine is 28.1
I was quite surprised at that tbh...thought it would be higher!
I am a regular gym goer which is helping but i do still have my beer gut

BMI isn't really that useful tbh - hip to waist ratio is a better index of whether you're overweight.

Ian · 11 Jul 2007 at 10:56

BMI of 42 BF% 28ish

BMI is a rubbish way of calculating fitness/obesity. According to BMI, tom cruise, brad pitt, and george bush are obese lol

MookJong · 11 Jul 2007 at 12:36

and all of the England rugby team that won the world cup are (were) clinically obese....
shows how a scale is good for the average person, but not people outside of the normal zone. you can forget about people at the extremes!
