125 being the start of healthy? That sounds sickly at that height, 125 is 5’4" junior high territory. That chart seems way off for an adult male. Im about that height, and I came into high school at a very thin 170. The healthiest weight I have been was 190-200. Do they take into account different builds or just rock out that one chart? ---

It’s a general guideline that takes into consideration a wide variety of body types. Of course it doesn’t work for everyone, and with any general guideline, there are going to be exceptions. But for the general public, it works as a good guideline. Only other way to know is a body composition test. ---

ugh. > . Body Mass Index (BMI) > > BMI is a reliable indicator of total body fat, which is related to the risk of disease and death. The score is valid for **both men and women** but it does **have some limits**. The limits are: > > ``` > * It may overestimate body fat in athletes and others who have a muscular build. > * It may underestimate body fat in older persons and others who have lost muscle mass. > > ``` > > Use the BMI calculator or tables to estimate your total body fat. The BMI score means the following: > BMI > Underweight Below 18.5 > Normal 18.5 - 24.9 > Overweight 25.0 - 29.9 > Obesity 30.0 and Above > > 1. Waist Circumference > > Determine your waist circumference by placing a measuring tape snugly around your waist. It is a good indicator of your abdominal fat which is another predictor of your risk for developing risk factors for heart disease and other diseases. **This risk increases with a waist measurement of over 40 inches in men and over 35 inches in women** > > The table, Risks of Obesity-Associated Diseases by BMI and Waist Circumference, provides you with an idea of whether your BMI combined with your waist circumference increases your risk for developing obesity associated diseases or conditions. ---

I know it has to be general, but it doesnt even seem remotely close. I cant picture a healthy adult male looking me eye to eye that weighs 125lbs. Hell even jeeves would be considered borderline overweight according to this chart :lol: ---
