BMI - DOES IT MATTER?

Mindset Monday

What BMI does not consider is your bone structure and body fat percentage.

So you could have a large bone structure and be muscular while also being considered overweight or even obese.

The inverse is also true. You could have a small bone structure and very little muscle and be considered a healthy weight.

A better indicator of overall health and predictor of illness is these two questions:

1) How much excess fat do I carry, and
2) Where do I carry it?
