BMI is the dumbest thing ever invented UPDATE

So I have to take a physical for my new life insurance policy. As anyone who has gone through the process knows, you have to be under a 25 BMI to get the best rates. I need to lose about 5-6 lbs to get there.
I lift 4-5 days a week. I have a 32-33 waist. It is not going to be easy to find 6 lbs to lose.

Water weight can do it. Yes, BMI is completely stupid.

Just dehydrate yourself.

BMI was originally created for census population studies. To be used as it is today is dumb.

Maybe you should always lift 5 days a week and you wouldn’t be so fat.

??For the experts:
If he were to eat extreme low-carb for a week and then shed fluids like a wrestler making weight, are there other aspects of the physical that he may fail?

I’m the opposite. Alcohol dehydrates you so much that I’m a couple lbs less after a night of drinking.

Maybe we should start pushing that this is discrimination towards fit people??
I sent an email to our HR complaining about this last year, I even stated that they mean to tell me the fittest guy in the world (Mat Fraser) is considered overweight/obese? Told them they should test body fat instead. They acknowledged my complaint but didn’t do shite about it.

Just get your body into ketosis for a few days and you will be amazed at the pace that you will burn any fat.
