BMI is rubbish

heyy this is a kind of reply to the BMI thing someone said further down. In my opinion BMI is a load of rubbish it doesnt take into account bone density, muscle mass, or genetics im quite a broad person with wide hips,boobs and big bones and ive never been under “overweight” in the BMI category. When i was 13-17 i went kickboxing, sometimes going up to 4 times a week for high intensity workout classes im 5’6 and when i was kickboxing weighed 11.5/12 stone but was a 12 and was extremely fit, however during gcse PE our teacher made us check our BMI and i was nowhere near the “healthy” part which was very frustrating, i was halfway between overweight and obese, so in response to people being healthy in relation to BMI im sorry but no. also genetically bigger breasts run in my family, however BMI just counts that towards your body fat total when i feel it shouldnt count.

though at the end of the day i know im healthy and happy so i dont listen to BMI anymore :P

“I will never shrink from speaking truth to power nor will I embrace the politics of spin. We need hope over fear, we need compassion over competition, we need to recognize that Canadians deserve a government where 308 MPs figure out how to work together. Whether a majority or a minority, we are 308 MPs and we are elected to serve the people of Canada, not any one political ideology.”
