Shit I Don't Get: BMI
Wednesday, July 01, 2009
This is part 1 in an infinite-part series called, "Shit I Don't Get." Today's subject: Body Mass Index.
I'm 5' 10". I weigh 177 pounds. My BMI is 25.4, which means I'm overweight.
Here's the problem:
6 months ago, I weighed 170 pounds, which made me 'normal'. Since then, I've been running more and lifting, so now I'm basically the same guy, but with bigger arms, chest, and legs, only now i'm 'overweight'. I'm an overweight guy with a 31 inch waist.
What the fuck? This is what you get when you try to use an index.
