I agree.

My son as very fit and muscular, and SOLID. He was consider overweight, borderline obese when there was hardly an ounce of fat on him.

I’ve also heard professional football player are also considered *obese* by those standards.

Yeah and body builders. I’m 6 foot and 190 lbs. Fit as a fiddle and it says I’m overweight. It was made up by a mathematician.

Just looking at a person is a better indicator of obesity. The fact that doctors and healthcare providers use it says a lot about their intelligence.
