“Yeah, I’m at about 8% bodyfat and, according to this, I’m pretty overweight...funny stuff.”

When I was in college our coach had us all weighed underwater.

I had a teammate (female) who was over 160 lbs. She was tall, probably 5’9”.
She was 7% bodyfat.

When people really live a healthy lifestyle, workout and do strength training, the BMI index becomes useless.
