BMI

[welshy23]

How much do you guys weigh compared to your height? is it average?....

Like im 5'8ish not too tall but i weigh more than all of my mates and they are like 6'2 thereabouts.... im like 11.8 stone :panic: im not fat by any standards, go to the gym to do weights and have been for a while... but muscle cant weigh that much can it? Heavy bones? < (if there is such a thing?)

Discuss? :)

EDIT - Random thought after going to the gym today :y:

[lwigmore]

Muscle weighs heavier than fat mate ;)

I'm 12.5 stone but mines mainly muscle and only tiny bit of fat on my stomach :(

[LeeM]

dont know my bmi, but im too fat round the middle at the moment. need to go on a speed diet or somethin

[Rudpud]

Last time i did my BMI, i was 14 and it was embarassing. All i know is im skinny :/

[Liam]

I have big upper body, I wouldn't say muscle, because it's not. I'm not naturally skinny and my BMI is healthy. I'm 5 foot 6 too. Pretty much a midget.

[rey]

By my BMI, I'm obese, yet I have 12.3% body fat.

im 5' 10 and weigh 11 stone, couple years ago when i was 10 stone 6 pounds, i went to the gym and had a BMI of 6.4 % fat, they said i was about a stone under weight.
Some mates are Rakes and still weigh the same if not mroe than me, so on that basis I think im hollow as im not a rake just a slight athletic shape

BMI is a load of bollox

[Liam]

It's handy if you need to go to Belfast though.

[LWS_71]

Muscle is three times heavier than fat! BMI is crap as it doesn't take into account if your short a muscly it will say you are obese. I'm skinny so mines low though lol.

[Tom]

Don't remember my BMI, or care for that matter. Remember my bf% though.

[NickJ]

I'm 5ft 10 and bang on 11 stone, not fat but not muscly either, could do with some meat on my arms and legs

Joke has already been made ... :clapping:

[daveg1]

I'm morbidly obese according to bmi and have a bmi of around 32. It's total crap really as I have a lil belly and am very fit and manage to play rugby every week

:y::y:

[ReCoNoR]

6'2. 207lbs (94kilos). 17yo.

BMI of like 26 or somethin, says im overweight, which is a load of bollocks in my opinion. Im not ripped, a bit chubby, but im broad and got decent muscles. Not that theyre very toned or anything!

[Rogue_Shadow]

Overweight and out of date :D

Nah I'm a bean pole, don't need a chart to tell me that!

[Viper]

Didn't read the thread, and i wasn't joking. Lol

[devilsadvocate]

My BMI is about 22.5 so bang slap in the middle of being the ideal weight :)

[Carlvtr88]

IIRC mine, last time i checked on the Wii Fit lol, Was something like 24 which suggested i was spot on.

[JamesR]

24 ish i think? But muscle weighs more than fat ;)

At 6ft 5, me being 200lbs is still pretty skinny although far from underweight :homme:

[leeham987]

im 5'11" my BMI is 18.80 so only just come under normal weight. I eat laods, just dont gain weight, been to doctors, said somethig about an overactive thyroid, its rather annoying.

[saxo_shortie]

mine states that im obese haha mint! yet im not THAT fat bt when i went on a proper machine that actually measures muscle am normal :)

[DannyVTS]

20.2

11 stone 2lbs, 6ft 1

[nicole_]

im overweight according to my bmi :(
i have a baby in my tummy though so i dont think it counts.
and im only 5 foot, so unless i weight about 6 stone im gunna be a fatty

[MiniGibbo]

5'9 and 98.9kg, was 105kg at my peak when bulking..

Dont know what that is but im probly classed as "obease" :homme:

[JoeExpose]

bmi is totalbollocks i think :/

[b0t13]

bmi is what fat people use to measure themselves at weight watchers, rather know my BF percentage tbh

[rumble291]

21.9 mine is.

Muscle doesn't weigh more than fat guys. Its the volume, so 5 pounds of fat is much more bulkier than 5lbs of muscle.

b0t13 im with you on knowing body fat percentage. BMI is aload of crap imo, If your built like a shit brick house, ripped with little body fat but alot of muscle then your BMI is going to be overweight or obese :S.

I'm the same nicole. Even at my skinniest I was still technically heavily overweight. Guess I just have heavy bones? Lol.
