How were we even able to tell the difference between the actual death camp survivors and normal Americans back then?

Unless you are short like Scruffy, you shouldn’t weigh 155 lbs.
I'm 6'2" and 175 - I've been as heavy as 260 (that was fat) - I was about 220 for a long time and my knees started to hurt and so did my back. Everyone likes to tell me I'm too thin - my doc told me people would say this stuff to me because people are so large now. I feel better - no more aches and pains - I guess I could start eating a lot more calories and have my joints start acting up again. Carrying a lot of extra weight can really mess with your body.

If you never skip leg day your BMI will always be high!

not even close to true
dont understand why its so hard to understand
normal bmi would is when the guy with average skelatol muscle mass would be at around 15% bodyfat which in the past was considered normal
so sure if you lift extremely hard and consistently over years you may be at 15% and be considered overweight....you have to understand at that point you are an outlier.
stop taking shite so personal.
if you lift and want to look at it through bodyfat %
below 8% is underweight
8-15% ideal weight
15-20% average
20-25%- overweight
25-30%- obese
30%+ morbidly obese.

33.0, but I have a 34" waist. The BMI was never intended to measure individuals as it assumes a certain percentage of muscle mass vs fat. This generally works itself out over large populations as it was intended.
Unfortunately, even though I'm muscular, I have to pay for life insurance at the "obese" rate because of that stupid chart.

The average is now probably closer to 180.

ok newsflash for everyone....less than 10% of the US population does any form of resistance training....if you lift extremely hard you are in the 95 percentile or so with the pro athletes etc. If you are considered overweight but can see your abs or verified under 15% BF....you are an outlier for BMI
Are things like pushups, sit ups, squats, dips, etc. where you just use your own bodyweight considered resistance training, or do weights have to be involved?

The groups overlap.
Severe obesity is included in obesity and both groups are included in overweight
At first read that was what I thought, but then I noticed the numbers for overweight were lower than obesity. So I assumed the results were based on where the people fell.

Nearly 1 in 3 adults (30.7%) are overweight.2

Yeah, I noticed that to.

Numbers should decrease with each level but instead it has a hump.

Calculator is wrong:
Height: 6 feet, 0 inches
Weight: 236.5 pounds
Your BMI is 32.1

I actually thought it was going to be much lower.
Obviously today is wayyy worse but at an average of 140 lbs puts the average woman a couple of burgers away from overweight.
I would have expected it to be like 125-130.

You cannot determine actual body fat % by height and weight alone.
THATS the issue.
