Ugh....I just lost a whole damned rant about this issue....
basically, in summation, most folks who workout only do so for cosmetic reasons, so they look pretty but are actually as unhealthy as the common Joe who is sitting his fat ass on the couch. Weight can be deceptive, because the fat person can be healthy while the buff person can be unhealthy, and vice versa. It's not weight that should be focused on, it's high body fat percentage (as that seems to have the strongest correlation with disease and poor health)....but the most accurate test for that is the water tank method, and most people don't like it. BMI is just bad bad bad....its inaccurate. |
