I generally don't like BMI, but 30 is pretty high benchmark.

Posted by musubi Nov 30 '09, 09:11

unless you're maybe a bodybuilder or something, then I could see a perfectly fit person having a BMI over 30.

- A-Rod's listed bio has him at a 28.5. It wouldn't take much to push him over 30. - Reagen Nov 30, 09:31 10

    - his subject and IM are part of the same thought. - Reagen Nov 30, 09:41 8

        That's what moose was saying. I don't know what else to say here. -- nm - Reagen Nov 30, 09:43 6

        You're transcribing him incorrectly. His post in full: - Reagen Nov 30, 09:48 4

        It's perfectly sensible. 30 is a high number, ***unless*** you're a bodybuilder or athlete. -- nm - Reagen Nov 30, 09:52
        
        and if you change "high" to a word like "stringent", then it kind of makes more sense -- nm - Beryllium Nov 30, 09:50 1
        
        that would change the meaning. 30 isn't stringent. 25+ (the BMI definition of overweight) would be stringent. -- nm - Reagen Nov 30, 09:51
