BMI is garbage for many people, especially people who lift for big gains. At 5'9" and 203 pounds, I believe it has me in the "obese" range. Yet, I'm less than 15% body fat by caliper method. By no means am I as lean as I would like to be, or as lean as I was before I left the Corps, but I'm far from obese. I'm not a fan of all of these methods of telling us just how fat we are. I use the mirror as my judge. Unfortunately, people are generally not critical enough of themselves in this country when they see their reflections.
