The BMI index seems very biased. I have a very athletic and toned build yet my BMI scales says I am "overweight"....NOT! At 6-2 and 195 pounds, my BMI is around 25 but says I'm "overweight" In order to get my BMI into the "Normal" range, I will have to drop about 5 pounds before my interview / medical. If they actually allow a BMI if up to 29 or 30, well that is a fairly overweight person. At 6-2 , I could weight a chubby 230 pounds and still have a BMI of under 30.
