Sorry, not following you. I don't see how somone 6'1" could be both 120lb and have 25% body fat.
But if you are a male, yes, 25% body fat is considered obese. But if you are female, you have a little more room.
I belive they go off when the body fat start making unhealthy changes to the body and death rates start to rise dramatically.
