I would classify it as worthless.

As would I. It says I am morbidly obese at 210lbs.

I have a 29 inch waist and wear a 48 suit coat, about a 10-12% body fat.

It’s the dumbest measurement I’ve ever seen.

It’s worse than worthless, especially when health care workers use it as a diagnostic for treatment.

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.
