The "normal range" for a 6' person is 136-184 lbs. A 6' 136 lb person is either a tall, skinny chick or a man who was, in fact, just released from a POW camp. 184 is reasonable though, for a puny, 5K weekend warrior type.

We can't all have the physique of a skateboarder.

So why is it that the BMI isn’t as much a problem for some states compared to others? Even if it’s all a bunch of BS for those slimmer states, why is it even more BS for these other fatter states? In same vein, why isn’t as much a problem for those Europeans?

I mean if BMI is complete BS, why isn’t it equally completely BS for everyone? Could it be some places are actually fat as shite?

Here’s the chart in 1990


Are you guys telling me people evolved to be “big boned” or have tree trunk legs in 30 years? Or maybe our diets have drastically changed in those 30 years so the BMI should change like that one guy suggested?
