BMI is for an popular guy or woman. At your modern height and weight you would be considered obese with the BMI index, I ought to renowned, i'm a similar height and weight 230 and my docs call me a similar. in case you workout many times, consume healthful, and additionally play activities or different events, you will have so plenty greater muscle than the traditional guy or woman, for this reason your BMI must be extreme for somebody your height, yet considering that muscle weighs greater suitable than fat, you ought to be completely healthful. as much as docs could desire you to weigh below 2 hundred kilos, you ought to be the only to sense comfortable with your physique. in case you're finding to maintain healthful, then workout, consume top, and you ought to lose (besides as i ought to) some greater proportion factors of physique fat, and sense astounding on a similar time as nonetheless being labelled fat (one step down from obese, get your BMI to 30 or below). wish this helps,

They say that a person can look healthy from their physique(as in low fat %) but they too say that the external look of a persons body really differs to that of his internal health(organs). You can assume a person is "healthy" by their body, but its a different matter when it comes to health.

I think your BMI can be off and a skin fold test is more accurate.
