See no I’m 6’6 1/2 290 and the chart says I’m morbidly obese
BMI is a good indicator, but people with lots of muscles can be overweight obese and be normal body fat while people can also be normal and be overweight (eg skinny fat).
That one guys bf% was definetly not 28, i don’t even think the other guy was 20%, they were both so thin!
Bmi doesn’t count for your muscle the calculator treats the muscle as fat therefore increasing the number
People are mad because the interviewer is overweight. I don’t think she’s trying to say she’s not obese. She legitimately pointing out the issue of exclusively using BMI. Nothing she said was wrong. She is saying if you want to have a more accurate measure of health, go get it. Don’t just use BMI. This is a great example of fatphobia to the extreme where you can’t even listen to what a woman is saying unless she’s skinny.
I got my diet plan from Next Level Diet and lost 2kg in just 10 days. So far, so good. Can’t wait to see numbers on scale after 20 more days. I am so excited about this.
According to the comments skinny people only eat veggies and drink cucumber water. Even their tears shed water weight
BMI is unreliable if you aren’t a senile couch potato. Muscles weigh more than fat!!! My classically trained ballet teacher is 5’5 and 165 pounds and she is as thin as a pencilshe’s just super muscular.
doctors treat patients not numbers, it’s pretty easy to tell what the bmi means when you look at somebody
I am 5″2 and weigh 80 lbs no joke. My friend is 5″0 and weights
If your BMI is over 30 and you look in the mirror and have no muscle, you’re probably not an elite athlete, sorry to disappoint you
Guys I am a doctor and believe me BMI is just used to see if your weight is normal with your height, mostly useful in accessing underweight patients, very helpful in children and developing countries, if you have great muscles, doctors wouldn’t even ask you to do a BMI anyways:p but even you get obese BMI, doctor can tell that it’s okay because you have normal muscle mass which is healthy. Just contact your doctor, guys ��
I’m 5 foot 6 and weighing 150 lb. But you would never believe I weigh that much. Cuz of how skinny I look.
i am sick of doctors that tells me i have to watch my weight because i am overweight even though my indicators are OK and i don’t have a big gut.
You can just look in a mirror and tell if you’re obese or not.
My BMI is 23 and I’m a little pudgy/chunky but that’s because I am small framed and I don’t have much in the way of muscles (I don’t have stick arms though). If I gained 13lbs I would be overweight.
i have an underweight bmi but i have less muscle than most my age…so i should probably try and workout more
Everyone in the comments is just talking about obese people, but I think this video was trying to highlight how people with “healthy” BMI should look at a better reference for their health.
the calculator says i have 34% body fat,wow im fat,and im not even american
Every time the doctor told me I was over weight I thought to myself I could pick you up and run half a mile with you on my back
BMI is completely stupid iv seen Women where actually slim to slim thick like Jessica rabbit but are considered morbidly because of BMI.
It seems to me, the real issue is not with BMI, it’s formula, nor it’s professional usage, but the public’s use of the number. This video is very important for non-health professionals to understand the limitations of a medical assessment tool, but, like all health and medical assessments and treatments, it is really the responsibility of the professional to deeply understand this. Which we do, we understand no one test of any kind is entirely definitive, but some “cheap, easy” tests are good to spot those who need help.
I’m 12 and my BMI in one website says my growth is more of a health concern than my weight and said I should do vigorous exercise and sports for 3 hours a day and eat really healthy 5’10 and 160 pounds bruh
I have a BMI of 26 and body fat of 13% (7 visceral) with muscle mass of 3/4 of total mass how am I overweight?!
i actually checked mah bmi in dis website and it said i was overweight but iam actually underweight
Was so concerned why people were 172 then realised it was pounds not kg
He y’all, I can’t find a video on this but I need help. Is it ok to be fat as a kid? I have a serious insecurity about my weight and can’t even stand in my own house wearing something 1 bit reviling. Please reply to me about this. Bye xx
I do my bmi and im apparently obese i weight 170 lbs but i dont look like i do weight that
The reason BMI is used is bcs it’s convenient it’s well known that it’s inaccurate but it’s the easiest to get when you’re at home and judging yourself
Did he say soy is good for us??? tell that to the people who have had problems with their estrogen and used soy
This video is definitely fantastic! It helps me recall of times when my cousin used Custokebon Secrets to get rid of 19 lbs and enjoy being healthy again! Most people want to lose fat, but we also need to stay nutritious, and that is exactly what Custokebon Secrets gifted.
Video: bmi measurement is right 80% of the time, but it doesn’t show the full picture
Comments: how dare you say bmi doesn’t work, it works 80% of the time!!!
I can certainly tell if someone is unhealthy just by looking at them.
I’m underweight. 5 ft tall, 16.2inch waist, and 76 lbs. (I’m 10)
I was disqualified for a surgery because my BMI. I’m muscle heavy. Trying to lose neigh.
the average person isn’t built like an olympian or able to get ripped by regularly going to the gym weighing less doesn’t mean you’re the picture of healthy lifestyle either
She says weird how.1 can be the difference between overweight and obese but that’s ridiculous. Obviously you have trended toward one way or another. You don’t suddenly wake up and become defined differently
Who didn’t already know this? Science lessons for dummies, I guess.
Can somone make a correction factor for bmi by using what somone can lift in diffrent ways to take into account muscle
Should i use my morning height or night height when checking my bmi?
BMI is bs I’m 14 at 160lbs with mostly muscle and some fat, but my teacher failed me on my BMI test even though he can clearly see I have barely any fat
Because BMI doesn’t take into account your body structure and ethics
Prime Mike Tyson at 5’10/220 is classified as obese by BMI. It’s a ridiculous calculation, especially for muscular men.
Mine
Age = 15
Weight = 40 KG, 88 Lbs
Height = 157 ( 5 Foot 1)
Can someone Calculate my BMI? ��
Bruh I’m 5’10 and I workout semi-regularly but I weigh 225 pounds and it just seems to keep going up
When i saw Muhammad ali i started laughing soo hard that guy can fight for over 55 minutes with 1min breaks and your telling me he is unhealthy
It is concerning seeing so many preteens here worrying about their bmi’s
You could be a 5’2 bodybuilder that weighs 190lbs and BMI says you are morbidly obese like wth
I was 6,1 180 and I was probably extremely skinny. I’m now 6,2 230 and am probably a little overweight but still look a lot like a DE in the NFL. Which makes sense considering the numbers
I get what they’re going for but just about all of their alternative methods are more invasive and expensive. I think that part of the prevalence of BMI testing is its a quick easy check for most people and if you dip into unhealthy weights then switch to a different method for testing to get down into what you need to do personally to be a healthier weight if that’s something that could benefit you.
My BMI is underweight yet I’m an active dancer and don’t feel weak at all. Thanks to this I don’t need to overeat again just to gain weight.
isn’t it supposed to take into account metabolism or your height or something to be able to tell if it’s healthy BMI or not
Yeeeeaaaaah because everyone is a athlete that works out multiple hours each day
i cant be the only one who got an ad about working out right before watching this video
My BMI has been around 14-17, and although it is considered underweight, if I’d gain enough to have a BMI of 24 my body would be way out of proportion. So BMI really isn’t something that can tell you if you’re healthy, take underweight people into consideration when debating in the comments.
I’m about 155cm and weight 60-61 kg. My BMI is 25,4, is that healthy? I mean, Im technically overweight but it doesn’t look like, I do feel sort of fat though -3-)
My dress from when I was 14 still fits, but I weigh more right now. Best to attribute that to muscle mass as I’m a lot more active now as an adult.
If you are saying BMI is wrong.. Then you should change the syllabus in schools..
Even I am not sure whether that’s right.. So your thought just proved all that is written is not right
Everyone here is skinny bro
Age: 12
Height: 160cm
Weight: 62kg
Bmi: 24.2
Yes im already trying to lose weight. I dont eat candy(sometimes like yesterday bc then i had an mc flurry), no soda, more veggies and fruit, smaller portoins of my dinner bc i reconised i overeat while dinner
My BMI used to be 44 at age 16…now I’m 18 and it fluctuates between 29 and 30. It sucks tho knowing I’m still in the obsess category:/ atm my doctor recommends I just try to maintain my weight or lose it very very slowly because I just got out of the hospital for an eating disorder. Tbh I’m kinda happy where I am rn. I weigh myself every other day and watch my diet. So far I’ve between inbetween 165 and 170lb but no more than that. Mentally I don’t wanna lose weight atm but obviously I don’t wanna gain any either….it just makes me sad that I’m still considered obese despite everything I went through…or at least that’s what it feels anyway:(
Edit: I’m 5’2 btw
Waist measurement will not work for me! I have IBS with a BIG tummy………
For real transformation you need perfect diet plan and training plan. The website called Next Level Diet do it for you. I lost 14lbs in one month!!! Isn’t that amazing!?
I can tell the difference between an obese person and athletic person though.
I knew which foods I need to eat to lose weight, but I didn’t know how much. Diet plan I got from NextLevelDiet contains portion sizes for every meal. Fantastic!
I don’t think BMI 18 should be classified as underweight. That’s still a healthy weight without any risks. Can we move the line down to BMI 15 maybe?
Doctor: I need to see you for losing weight too fast and your BMI is out of control
Me: Well, BMI and weight are not good indicator of your health
Look at your BMI, then a mirror. You’ll get some pretty accurate results
The second you hear someone advocate any application of BMI, it’s best to click out.
Well every expert thinks anybody who is muscular and has a BMI of 25+ is on steroids so we can use use BMI as a measurement
so why should we use BMI is it has all this flaws? maybe we should switch to a body fat calculator well known as impedance meter.
I am 167cm and i weigh 52, am i underweight?
I go to gym and eat alot and constantly to get more mass but am i normal weight or still underweight? My fat percentage is 7 and without a shirt i look pretty normal.
I am 15 years old.
The fact that there is no differentiation between men and women’s bodies is unreal
I just wanna say my BMI confuses me it’s 19.2 but I think I’m underweight
Bmi is a wrong concept.
It’s body fat percentage that must be taken into consideration.
For perspective on the inaccuracy of this, the Rock has a BMI of 34.
I’m 5 foot 6 inches, I weigh 200lbs and according to the calculator, I’m obese class 1 -_I’m not happy about it…
so I have been obese for awhile but am no just in the overweight category
I wish I had run into the “Yamzoko Weebly” (Google it) a long time ago. I reduced 12 lbs in three weeks so far. Of course I exercise a few times a week, and eat well. It showed astounding results for me. I absolutely advise the product, hope it works as good for you simply because it does for me..
To all those under 18, bmi calculators are not for you.
As an adult I have ran a BMI of 20 as a training athlete and 24.5 at a normal. Then I hit a 30. I was definitely hitting overweight as my waist became 8 inches larger. I spent a year and lost 50 or so pounds back to 23.8.
Thing is that it is a guideline to estimate where you stand. No one says it is the complete picture.
At 6 feet, and at 175 pounds I am feeling a little light but… can I ever run and jump and play. Couldn’t do that at 227.
Using other calculations I am at 11.5 to 17 % fat, but bmi says I am 20 to 22 %.
I know my fitness and my natural weight. and to finish I would say easily that if you are 6 feet tall and weigh over 225 you are either as fat as I was OR if you are not fat and have a lot of muscle your heart is being o reworked BECAUSE your heart is always the same size and does not grow while you put on fat or muscle. You will overwork its capacity and end life early.
It is a guideline.
Oh man i honestly don’t even care it only justifies people’s fatphobia
Nobody is using the bmi for bodybuilder or other elite athletes. Jesus christ. It’s simply used to get a rough estimation of your classification. Of course different methods like mri are a lot more accurate. But can you do an mri at home? With no real equipment? Nobody is saying its the only way but it’s an easy solution to get a rough estimate
There is so much fuss about BMI. I was reading an article http://www.wellmanclinic.org/2017/12/14/body-fat-matters-rethinking-the-bmi which is also saying the same. Jeff is pointing out the right facts about BMI. Thanks for sharing this.
So I’m 5″10 220 pounds low body fat cause I’m jacked, guess I’m obese huh
My Bmi is 30 ����. I run 10k every other day. 20k every Sunday and I do 400 exercises on my non run days. Fit and fast with zero health issues. Bmi is dated and should come with an advisory that the numbers are purely indicative.
Most of the commenters didn’t watch the full Video. The Point this Video is trying to make is “While it can be helpful, the BMI shouldn’t be the only way to understand the Human Body.”
2:38 the woman is atleast overweight. She doesn’t look muscular to me.. she is overweight.
Anyone tested out the Custokebon Secrets (do a search on google)? We have noticed several awesome things about this popular lose weight diet plan.
If you have so much muscle that you’re considered obese, you would know. This just seems like something obese people thought up to validate their unhealthy life choices.
Im 11 and my bmi is 30.7 im only 45 or 44 kg and im not even that fat, well kinda but not until i have flaps. I dont have flaps and i play soccer quite often.
My bmi is 19.1 and the past year I have tried to gain more weight. Gaining weight has always been an issue for me. Nowadays I drink 1dl olive oil every morning just to get more calories. My aim is to be at least bmi 20-21 ballpark.
Body Mass Index OR BMI is a LIE
“Healthy” BMI = 18 to 25
I am 5 foot 6 and 180 pounds. That puts me an overweight bmi of 29.
Bull crap. 5 more pounds and I’m Considered obese. No one can look at me and seriously say I am obese.
BMI completely excludes body fat as a factor. Not saying I don’t have any fat, but my muscle mass is why I’m 180. If i dropped to 165 pounds, I would be a leen and healthy 10% body fat.
The BMI system is a mistake only geniuses can make.
Thank goodness. I thought this was those obese women saying obesity according to the BMI chart didn’t mean they were unhealthy.
Honestly, I never had problems with my weight. I could eat whatever I wanted and still maintain normal weight, but a lot of junk food really affected my health. Diet plan from NextLevelDiet contains delicious and nutritionally rich foods your body, brain and heart will love. It’s definitely worth trying.
I hate being below avg with around 150 pounds with a height of 6’ at the age of 15 but looking fat (don’t know if it’s my head messing with me)
Diet Plan called Custokebon Secrets kept showing up here on a lot of videos and I thought they were scam. However after my buddy follow it, and finally lost a ton of weight with it without starving herself. I’m persuaded. You should not take my own word for it, search for Custokebon Secrets on the google search engine.
I think y’all just like calling other people obese. No one here actually cares.

I think I have a normal weight I’m just putting this here cause why not lmao
My BMI is 41 ����♂️…I’ll get down give me 3months. Pray for me guys! We can do this..
I also don’t understand the waist circumference. A short and tall person will have different waist circumferences just because of proportions. Why do they not give a height to waist ratio
BMI. Ruining HighSchoolers self expectations even more ���� when will social-economic factors play their part.

It says I am healthy weight. But I am fat.
That’s right. I am 5ft 6 and weigh 156. My body fat is 14%. I wear a size 6 dress and pants. Athlete level. BMI is not always accurate. I eat healthy and stay active. I am muscular and lean and fit.
If you really love yourself than you will excercize and go on a diet do you can live longer and love yourself
25-29 is overweight. 30 or more is obese. Unless you are a ball of muscle. Makes no sense throw it all away
I’m 5´4 138 pound grown adult! My mom is only 4´11 my sister is 5´0 only
”You look like the most perfect example of someone who has a healthy weight. What is your BMI, and I can tell you if you’re overweight or not?” lol
My bmi is literally 32 and i don’t look it at ALL, I was so surprised when i checked.I’m not what you would consider skinny, definitely what i guess people call slim thicc? but I sure as hell am not obese looking, idfk im 4’9 and weigh 150
Do natural popular lose weight diet plan like Custokebon Secrets really work and if so, how effective are they? We’ve noticed many awesome things about this popular fat burn diet plan.
Hi there, I want to know if Custokebon Secrets, will really work for me? I see many people keep on speaking about this popular lose weight method.
I’m 5’1 and some and I’m 130 idk whether I’m overweight or obsess
40 inches, really! I’m 6’4″ with a 40″ waste. I have a friend who is 5’4″ with a 38″ waste. So he’s ok and I’m not, really!?!? What if we just took our height in inches and divided by two. My 76 inches would be 38″ waste making me overweight and my friend at 64″ would mean a 32″ waste making him really overweight. Now doesn’t this make more sense than one fixed number for everyone?
As usual completely useless. Even with healthy bmi people can have copious amount of subcutaneous fat which is even more dangerous than the visible. This excessive focus on weight is not healthy. Best way to measure body fat for non professional is to use the navy body fat measurement, it only has an error margin of 3 to 5%. That will be a good indicator if you are healthy or not.
Somebody pls answer

The BMI chart has literally been in my ears since being a teenager hearing the doctor say obsesity 2020 weightloss mission
Yes if you are Skinny Fat since being Skinny Fat can possibly be as bad as being overweight or underweight since skinny fat can be diabetic or similar but also usually lack much muscle tone proportional mass and strength even lack proportional fat they are not really average either as what others claim to be average but of course everyone has different standards or preference of what is average however i don’t deem myself to be average built…i don’t believe a simple excerse would do anything as i have experienced excersing for 2 whole years and the results i have gotten didn’t improve strength or mass but did reduce my skinny fat body to almost underweight which i have gotten more lightweighted but still no improvement elsewhere of the body..i may as well treat myself with Myostatin Inhibitors

What exactly is Custokebon Secrets? How does this thing really work? I see lots of people keep on speaking about this popular fat burn diet plan.
Lol!!! Michael Jordan NEVER weighed 242 in his career. He was in the normal range throughout his entire career (200-216 lbs). Terrible example!!
For most people’s like us, the obesity test works pretty good but it does not really work for fit elite athletes but it won’t matter for them because they already know that they are healthy

m 30 years just diagnosed with diabtetes and hypertension, my weight is 108kg class1 obesity
Read on Vox.com: “Being an overweight teen could come back to haunt your health” http://bit.ly/2FAhMmG
6’1, 185 pounds, 28 inch waist. Bench press 285, squat 405, play basketball 3 days a week, and hike, camp and kayak frequently. I was marked down as overweight for a 25.5 BMI on my health screen and lost points towards my premium decrease.
is this woman seriously trying to tell us her high BMI is a result of being really muscular? she certainly doesn’t look muscular.
My bmi says im underweigh but im 178 cm tall(5,10) and 54 kg (118 lbs) and 14
So this is deep
nobody cares about your bmi, especially when you’re 12-14 so please shut up
In BMI (Body Mass Index) 18.49 and below is considered as Underweight. From 18.50 to 24.99 is considered as Ideal Weight or Correct Weight. From 25.00 to 29.99 it is considered as Overweight. From 30.00 and above is considered as Obese.
BMI is an index, indices are usually a generalisation and they don’t reflect individual/special details. That doesn’t diminish their value or make them wrong. BMI is used in conjunction with other measures, not on its own to determine health of an individual.
I only believe in NextLevelDiet. They provide you with personalized meal plan, training plan, fitness tips, healthy recipes. Thats everything you need to transform your body and get six pack:D
My BMI is 15.8 and idk what to do i’m trying to gain weight but I can’t any tips plsssss
When you train in a sport for years only to realize that you’re officially obese
BMI isn’t great.
But you know if your jacked or a tub of lard.
Bet this lady thinks she’s an Olympic athlete just cuz she OBESE
Wow i am under weight and btw my friend is 12 xd thin as a twig
I wondered why my BMI is a good bit above ideal but my body fat is in the very good range
My BMI is 23 I don’t know if that’s underweight healthy or obese
Here come all the people with too much fat saying “iTs aLl mUsClE”
I seen a video that made much sense about the BMI. Two men both 5’7 43 yrs old, one has a bmi 35% body fat and the other has bmi 10% body fat. The one with less body fat would eat more vs the one with 35% cause the body muscle mass is different. 222-10% be 199.8 body mass vs 222-35%=144.3 body mass. If we ate the same he wouldn’t get gains and the one with 35 wouldn’t lose weight.. So your better of to just find your bmi and minus that from your weight to get your bmr.. Cause the only thing in your body that is using calories is muscle body mass not fat.
What is a correct body weight according to height and sex,or/and sexual orientation.
I LOST 19LBS IN JUST ONE MONTH. I just followed diet and training plan from website called NextLevelDiet.
Also gotta love YouTube, where everybody in the comments section is a muscle hulk with godly physique.
Keep in mind the BMI isn’t just “inaccurate” it it just punished those who have a large amount of muscle and those aren’t the people complaining abt the BMI’s inaccuracies. The people complaining are those that are 5’2” 230lbs and have only ever seen dumbbells in pictures

ive been working out for 3 years ive gone from overweight to healthy and gained alot of mass from muscle, im 5’10 and weigh 170 and dont trust your weight its just a number look in a mirror and if you look like your healthy than you are.
the examples of people that they use in this video ridiculous it is not normal to have as much muscle as athletes leaving out key information like this is why I find vox very shady they always have an agenda or some kind of audience to please with these videos rather than straight facts, I’m very disappointed
I play basketball, do parkour, gymnastics and even bboying. The Doctor told me I am overweight and need to see a dietitan. Looking forward to see her, taking off my shirt and showing her my pecs and big biceps. I will also ask her which new sport I need to take up
Yeah, but even too much muscle can be too much weight, and decrease your lifespan….the lighter the better, even with muscle, it is not a guarantee of good health…..too much muscle, not good…waist for men should be, generally, 32″
