, BMI really does now work , using body fat callopers is really the only accurate way to see what your BMI is

When they won the world cup the whole England rugby squad were far over clinically obese according to BMI, its rubbish (I'm told)

What about your internal fat, the stuff round your organs??

 

Your better with the electric gizmo that passes a current through you to measure the fat.

Yeah that is a good point Huck , i know that down here the costs for that method are quite high but still the calculation does not take into account skeleatal structure and % of muscle

I'm suprised to read I'm overweight! The calculator I used wanted height weight age and sex surely body type should come into it? Muscle is heavier than fat apparently. I'd intrigued now I want a go on that electric Huck is talking of haha

When I was in Cornwall (more than 10 years ago) I when to my brothers gym with him (he lived down there then) they had one in the gym and it was free.

 

My brother has always done weights, I don't, he was gutted because he was 19% fat and I was 17%

BMI is total poo.

 

The only known accurate measurement is to take your shirt off on your next roadside job and note the reaction of women drivers.
