[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]BMI is a rough guideline - it is not a precise determiner, [b]and isn't helpful for people who are physically active and likely have greater muscle mass. [/b] [/quote] LOL. People telling themselves that because they lope around the block or on a treadmill for 30 minutes every other day they likely have a greater muscle mass. BMI isn't the end all and be all (most people already know if they are too skinny or too fat), but the muscle mass it takes to throw off the charts is not even obtainable by most desk jockeys. [/quote] maybe we should be using calipers more widely, that way no muscle mass will come into play. Im sure people wouldn't howl about how degrading that is [/quote]
