They are using BMI to come to this conclusion. The index which puts heavily muscled people in the obese category...
No. That literally does not happen. You need to be roided to the gills eating 6 full meals a day and working out nonstop to even get close to being obese via muscle.

Even if you are in the obese category due to solely muscle mass that is still really bad for your body and heart lmao

Exactly. BMI may not correlate accurately with body fat percent for a tiny fraction of the population (<.5%) who are hardcore body builders (and no, the army isn't full of bodybuilders either), but guess what? They're still fricking unhealthy too. So, even if it's for a different reason, BMI still accurately selects them as being headed for bad health outcomes.
