In extreme cases yeah BMI is not an indicator of health, like NFL players, but for the vast majority of people it is extremely accurate, and I hate reddit so much and its EVERYTHING

Are you sure? Becouse nfl players arent known for their health.
Nfl players have lower rate of type 2 beetus. But highly increased risk of cardiovascular issues. Highest among linemen and those who had bmi over 30 during their active career.
You shouldn't throw away indications of health just becouse they are nfl players.

So what. Bmi is statitical indiaction of health risks. If you have bmi of 30. It dosent matter if its fat or roids. You are still at elevated risk.
bmi works even in these nfl cases

That was my point and if 6'3 guys have to get roided to hit bmi of 30 while being lean. Then there is no fricking way an 5'3 foid can get to bmi 30 and be healthy. Since the standard of bmi is 5'9 miner worker
