To be used in conjunction with the height poll. Then an aggregate BMI can be calculated.

BMI is awful. If you lift weights, or have any significant muscle mass, you can throw BMI out the window.

Oh, absolutely. It is a worthless measure even factoring in wide variability in bone density, etc., before you even get to muscle mass. I am not entirely serious.

Your listing for "internet poker pro" is way too low. I don't know a single person who fits under that category who is less than a deuce and a half. I'm sad to say that I had to click "etc" as I am 6'2, 302. That's right, 3 bills. I finally bit the bullet and joined a gym last week.

Yeah, BMI isn't very accurate if you do any weight-training. I'm about 215 now and I exercise 3-4 times a week, 1 hour minimum. I stand about 6'. I don't have a six-pack, but if I start eating a bit better and start making sure I exercise regularly (and stop getting sick), I could by summer (or maybe I'm disallusioning myself). Helps that I'm doing the swimming leg of a half-Iron Man in May.

If you exercise, you'll notice you actually lose weight if you stop. Muscle weighs more than fat.

S'all good.

This poll sucks. I'm in the "fatass" (IPP) category, can bench 2 plates and have a pretty respectable time running a 10K.

Some of us are just kinda big. As a corollary, BMI is stupid.

my weight woulda kinda skew this poll for the guys
im 5'6 and im usually 127 to about 140 depending on what time of year it is and what sport im doing

i work out a ton...and muscle weights more than fat - so my weight sounds alot for a girl b/c #1 most girls lie about thier weight and #2 i work out

5'11" 205-210 depending on whether or not I've dropped a deuce. I could stand to lose 15lbs in the gut region, but everything else is solid.

Apparently, I [censored] bigger than some of you. /images/graemlins/grin.gif

5'11 - 175lbs. In decent shape. I got up to 195 last year, and decided that was too big, so I dropped 20lbs.

I'm just over 6 foot. A couple of months ago I weighed 115lb, I decided that was too little and I think I weigh around 130lb now which I'm told is healthier. I feel fat though, it's weird.

Wow dude. 130 is rail thin for your height. Do you disappear when you turn sideways? :P

this is true. When I was 18, I was 5'8" and 129 lbs. Bootcamp and 3 months later I was 5'10" and 165lbs of solid muscle. It's amazing what happens when you exercise LESS.

Of course, the older you get the more you'll fill out. I'm guessing you eat like a horse too. A quick metabolism is a beautiful thing.

Damn... I'm about the same height, 195 pounds and I can't imagine being 160, let alone 130, and 115 is beyond my comprehension.

15 years ago, when I was the starting middle linebacker on my HS team, 6'1" 235, 32" waist.

I think it went to hell when I discovered beer.

Wrong.

balkii and pizownored are both internet poker pros, and I don't think they break 2 bills *combined*
