Corey S.,
You kinda' flew into the "hornets' nest" when you submitted your initial post. We're just truckers who communicate with one another around here.
Brett Aquila is the owner of this website. He's the man you want to talk to. Scroll down to the bottom of this page, click on his picture, and if you want to communicate with him directly, you can do so there.
Best of Luck to you,

BMI:
Body mass index (BMI)
BMI is a formula that uses weight and height to estimate body fat. For most people, BMI provides a reasonable estimate of body fat. The BMI's biggest weakness is that it doesn't consider individual factors such as bone or muscle mass. BMI may:
- Underestimate body fat for older adults or other people with low muscle mass
- Overestimate body fat for people who are very muscular and physically fit
It's quite common, especially for men, to fall into the "overweight" category if you happen to be stronger than average. If you're pretty strong but in good shape then pay no attention.
