Re: What is your BMI?
26 - slightly overweight.
I recently read an article in Scientific American about BMI. There's some scientists that question its usefulness, since it's basically an arbitrary measure designed by the US government. And, as other posters mentioned, it doesn't account for muscle mass/bone density. I mean, 50% of the NBA is considered obese.
I don't remember all the details, I think its from the May issue if anybody's interested in more.
