Wrong again E-Rich (TLN) Two people can have the same BMI, but a different percent body fat. A person with adiquate muscle mass and a low percent body fat may have the same BMI as a person who has a lot of body fat because BMI is calculated using weight and height only. It also doesn't take into consideration body type, bone dencity etc. So someone can be fat and still have a BMI of "normal". A naturaly skinny guy with a big head and a big tummy for instnace. AFAIK BMI was developed mainly for children and is not so usefull for those who have passed puberty. Of course, BMI has nothing at all to do with performance, so maybe BMI is a good mesure for you. We simplply don't have the information at hand, so how could we say? Are you left handed or right handed E-Rich? _______________________________________________ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l
