Bench Press last spring was 350 and leg press was 675.

The site says my "ideal weight" is 232 based on "People's Choice" and my "medical recommendation" is between 156-205. With a BMI of 19-25.

Odds are I will outlive most any 6'4" 156-205 person; just because I am meaner than they are...

I also used to weigh 275 at 6'4" - now am 198, go and buy 75 lbs of butter and put it on your dining room table, take long look at what you're carrying around on yourself, then put it into a backpack and put it on and go for a walk - after 20 mins take the pack off and feel the difference.

If you're still active losing weight is pretty easy and you feel amazingly good when you do it too.

All those don't take mass of the bones into account. There's a way to do so by including the width of the elbow in the calculation. Can't remember any detail.

I belive the most accurate way includes measuring your weight and then lowering your self into a tank of water and measuring how much water you displace.

This methode is fairly precise beacause it takes into acount that muscles are heavyer than fat.

21.5 here.

I guess I am a skinny football wimp.

That, or I'm just not FAT.

at 6'0" 220lbs all those BMI charts say I'm a lardass. BMI is a crock of ****. If you can't look at yourself and know if you need to lose weight or not, something's wrong. At 215 my bodyfat was 8%, now it's probably about 10%, still well on the healthy side. I'm big-boned dammit!
