Eldron Posted January 12, 2011 Share Well at my last fitness test I weighed 74kg's. This gave me a BMI of about 20 and that's fine if you are an athlete. And I quote: If your BMI is below 20:This indicates a lean BMI, which means you have a low amount of body fat. If you are an athlete, this can be desirable. If you are not an athlete, a lean BMI can indicate that your weight may be too low which may lower your immunity. If your BMI and body weight are low, you should consider gaining weight through good diet and exercise habits, to increase your muscle mass. If your BMI is between 20 and 22:This indicates the ideal, healthy amount of body fat, which is associated with living longest, and the lowest incidence of serious illness. Coincidentally, it seems this ratio is what many individuals perceive to be the most aesthetically attractive. See and I'm attractive according to above 23 and some change for me..."normal" man I hate being called normal.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiny K Posted January 15, 2011 Share Weight is the major part of your solution. I am 1.93m, was 108kg 15mnths ago, now 87kg.... focus on nutrition, keep the pedals turning consistently and you will float up climbs. How did you get to 87?! I am teetering at 95, same spec for weight and similar height - I started at 108Kg's too. Lost it gradually since last year november..... so what is your secret to weight loss?
