Question: Does anyone feel like!.!.!.!?
These BMI things are inaccurate!?
I get really frustrated when people go by them to tell them if they're overweight or not!.Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
They definitely are!.

You can't judge someone's weight just by age and height!. You have to take their muscle mass, activity level, and bone structure into account!.

I heard about a guy who was on the bigger side, but totally fit and healthy!. He ran triathalons all the time, ate perfectly, and was as healthy as could be!. His natural body shape was just not a stick!. But according to the BMI he was overweight!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Yes they are inaccurate because they don't take into account the weight of your muscle mass!. A friend of mine is very short but weighs a lot because he's very muscular, he's a fit person and according to the bmi he is overweightWww@Answer-Health@Com

YES! TOTALLY!

I'm 5'8 and 127 pounds!.
And my bmi is 19!.3
BUT I FEEL SO MUCH SKINNIER!

o well!.!.!.numbers are jacked up!. dont pay attentionWww@Answer-Health@Com

Yes, the BMI doesnt give a true indication of muscle and fat BUT it does give a rough (very ) idea of your body fat

Its an old and outdated systemWww@Answer-Health@Com

I know exactly what you mean!. I weigh around 155 and am 6'2" and it says that I'm 19!.9!. That is ridiculous!. I am skinny boned but that I KNOW I'm atleast 10 pounds underweight!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

they might not be exact but for people without much muscle it generally tends to be rightWww@Answer-Health@Com
