21 bmi

You have a lower BMI than 79% of males aged 15-29 in your country
You have a lower BMI than 62% of males aged 15-29 in the world

My body fat was 6% the last time I measured so I guess that's alright. My genetics aren't that good to absorb fat...

How do you go about measuring your body fat? I've always wondered about this

A little tool that sends some sort of electrical current through your body and then makes an estimate from how much interference etc. it found in the way, at least I think that's the theory.

It's a good thing that BMI is a farcical way to gauge your health. That being said, I could afford to lose a couple pounds.

bmi is stupid shit. if you have some muscles, bmi will tell you that you are too fat which is more than stupid because in reality you will have much less fat than most other people with a lower bmi. so, it can show a good average fo a country but if you have some muscles don't use it to measure if you are too fat.


This. I have 7% body fat and bmi tells me I'm too fat....I'm crying right now.

Thank God im not alone.
