BMI is not a good measure of anyone’s health. However it is calculated by dividing your weight by your height. Given a fixed weight, the taller you are, the smaller your BMI.
If x is a positive number, X/72 is smaller than X/68. The shorter person has the higher BMI. Bosko is a mothertruckin moron. Being “too tall” doesn’t make your BMI worse, yet you have now said it 3 times. You are a full fledged idiot.

Now you are in the Bosko Cult, also. Is it legal to be in more than one?
Again, you dont know how to READ!!! I never ONCE said being taller makes your BMI WORSE!!! I said being taller gives you a HIGHER BMI!!! As do the MEDICAL SOURCES!!!! Please see yourself OUT!!! NICE TRY NINCOMPOOP!!!
So manute bol must have a higher BMI than refrigerator Perry. Now you are wrong four times on one thread.
And you are wrong 5 times in one thread! NICE TRY BOZO!!!!
Dare I say that BOTH of you are right? Yes, being taller does naturally give you a higher BMI. But as Toots said, it's based upon height and weight. So while a taller person will have a higher BMI, it's not necessarily a BAD BMI.
What? Another moron who can’t do math.
Being taller does not raise your BMI. It might raise your weight. Being fatter or more muscular raises your BMI.
HAHAHAHAHA!!! I called that Buffalo loss almost a week ago!! MU? Collapse much!?? MAJOR let downs by BOTH the Chiefs AND MU Tigers!! GO STEELERS!!! GO NITTANY LIONS!!!!
Notice this article says nothing about tall people having BMI skewed upward. Because that’s not how it works.
BMI can also be a false alarm for a significant number of people due to the factors that BMI does not account for.
Here are five examples:
BMI can also be a false alarm for a significant number of people due to the factors that BMI does not account for.
Here are five examples:
- Muscle mass: Because BMI cannot distinguish between fat and muscles, it can overestimate body fat in athletes or individuals with lots of muscle mass. It can also underestimate body fat in people with very little muscle mass.3
- Sex: Females tend to have more body fat than males. Therefore, a woman in a “safe” category may be at higher risk of heart disease and other conditions than her male counterpart of the same BMI.
- Age: BMI may not accurately predict health risks for young and old people.4 For example, a BMI below 23 in someone over 75—which is in the "normal" range for adults—is associated with a higher risk of mortality (death), while being in the “overweight” range is not.
- Race/ethnicity: Body fat proportions can vary by race, meaning that BMI scores can mean very different things if you are Asian (who have greater proportional body fat than Whites at the same BMI) or White (who have greater proportional body fat than Blacks at the same BMI).5
- Body shape: Evidence suggests that where body fat is located matters. Those who carry weight around the middle—what's called an “apple” body shape—have higher health risks than people with a "pear" shape (those who accumulate weight in the hips and thighs).6
For this reason, some experts now argue that BMI interpretations need to be tailored for specific groups.5
Wait a second. Being taller might raise your weight? Havent you been saying the BMI is ALL ABOUT HEIGHT AND WEIGHT!?!? You cant even win your own argument!! Case CLOSED!!!
I can see why no one likes you on here. I'm an idiot not a moron. But I can do math. I have a masters in biology.
You are BOTH right. Bosko is simply saying taller people will naturally have a higher BMI. You're saying the BMI is factored by height and weight. You're literally both correct
Thanks Shoot... now maybe we can end this 💩 💩 💩 !!!
Bosko is wrong. My niece is 5’4 and weighs 140.
My nephew is 6’1 and weighs 150. He is a bean pole. He is 9 inches taller than her and weighs more than her. But his BMI is significantly lower.
Height doesn’t raise your BMI. 🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯
Trump loves the uneducated.
Then why not just tell Bosko the truth instead of both sidesing this? Are you afraid of the jolly fat man?
Dominant!! My Bills are enfuego. In tip top shape. I can eat lightning and crap thunder. Life is good despite the country being headed for Armageddon
And MY STEELERS are sitting just right! You better believe were gunning for that number 1 seed!!
Until they lose to the lowly Browns tonight................
