This x 100. I'm a pretty big guy at 6'3" 262 lbs. I work out 3-4 days a week lifting and train BJJ another 2-3. My waist is right around 32" but according to BMI, i'm obese. To fall in the "normal" range for BMI, i'd have to weigh 175 lbs. I would look like a cancer patient at 175.
BMI gets thrown way off for above average tall people especially if you have muscle mass. A big advantage of being tall is you can also gain 20lbs of fat and can’t tell a difference appearance wise.

its still 20lbs of fat. height does not throw it off, its muscle mass that does. 20lbs of fat is still a big percentage to add on to bodyfat levels
