For two people that are the same height, one could have X lbs of pure muscle, and one could have X lbs of pure fat, and they would have the same BMI. Color me shocked that it is not always a good predictor of disease.
If the muscular person has an obese bmi he is still unhealthy though.
My problem is it’s usually the second guy advancing this argument.
Cool, I am 185cm and 68kg, work out 6 days a week, and have very little body fat. I am making this argument because it bothers me that this measurement treats visceral fat and muscle as the same thing. It’s often useless, unless you’re measuring degrees of obesity or something.
