It's still lighter than the average American BMI, which is around 29. On average, Americans are classified as overweight.
Yes thats what i was referring to, you're both correct on your respective angles.
My BMI is 28.7 at 181cm and 94kg at 45.25 years old.
Am I overweight, not far off obesity?
You probably wouldn’t say so if you saw me.
BMI is mostly only a useful metric when it is.
I'm with ya at 29.4. I carry a lot more muscle than the average populace, so I'm both high BMI and appear to be "fit" to casual onlookers. But dexa says 26% which is about double what I would like.
How do you conclude you carry more muscle than the average?
The scorer (computer) on my dexa scan noted I carried "elite" (ie high percentile) muscle mass.
