BMI is a statistic that works for a population that is unhealthy.

The data points would be completely preposterous if men were fit again.

For ex, I'm 6'1 200lbs, that puts me at 26 which is closer to obese than normal weight.

My waist size is 32 with a belt.

The weight of my skeleton & muscle mass from training my whole life throw this metric into the waste bin.

Fiat metrics.

VO2 Max on the other hand is a great metric, anyone here to a lab to get this measured ever?

I believe many Bitcoiners would benefit from measuring this, could be motivating to get actually healthy - something a blood test & doctor visit alone cant get you.

BMI is pretty useless for those with a decent muscle mass 😂
