Ok well i have a BMI of 25% and for guys the recommended for guys is between 12 and 17%. Would you consider 25% to be bad since my legs are solid muscle. And I'm mosly outside walking, sometimes a jog. I don't consider myself to be over weight, cuz I'm bulid like a tank. What your opinions?

I don't really bother with BMI. I think there are more accurate ways to measure body fat, to do that you have to get a medical check up. I excercise a lot and have a slight tummy, yet I am considered underweight if i do the BMI.
I read an article once entitled "thin outside, fat inside". It says not all fat people are unhealthy and not all thin people are healthy.
