That chart has got to be out of date or does it take muscle mass into account? I'm 6' and If I was 140-180 I would look like a crack head!

That can't be the correct scale. 6' and 190lbs is far from overweight. Especially with any type of exercise routine.

I'm 6'2 and if I were under 200 like this chart is suggesting I'd look like a fricking skeleton.

BMI is dumb. I'm 5'10 175 and pretty shreaded but that thing says I'm over weight. The only thing on me that's over weight is my cock.

Lol at that chart. Maybe for a sedentary person. I'm 5'10 205 and it says I'm obese. I've put on some weight but wouldn't call myself obese or even very overweight at all. When I'm 185, I have a six pack and I'd still be considered overweight according to that

So I could lose 30 pounds and be in the lower end of the normal BMI range? Yes! I've always been concerned with my weight, even more so since since I gained about 10 pounds last Fall. I will be eating healthier and exercising more regularly and longer next school year. I was told that I look healthier, but this chart has me teetering on the line between normal and overweight, which isn't bad but could be better.

Stupid chart is stupid.

When I was in the best shape of my life I had a 6 pack and was boarder line obese according to that.

Do you even lift bro?

I'm pretty sure this chart is for those that don't have a true workout regimen for gaining muscle mass. If you don't workout, this chart is telling the truth.
