Who is the fattest person on the board?

[Francko]

That's not even outside optimum BMI. If you'e got tits, Why don't you go to the gym? Johnny Wilkinson is 13 1/2 stone, 5ft 10 and hardly fat.

Franco Columbo, ex Mr Olympia, was 5'4'' and 190 lbs.

I was 11.5 stone in June 06, so put on 1.5 stone in 7 months so feel it, was really into the gym as well 3-4 times a week for years, then in June just stopped going, cant get myself back into it . It aint muscle either. I look heaver than I weigh if thats possible.

I think you can be overweight, and still be ok. But when your belly starts looking like a bum, it's time to do something about it!

"Itll be me then. 5'11 and 17 stone."

Most people don't think I weigh 17stone, but the years of weight lifting has left with a solid sculptured body with a layer of fat over the top.

BMI categories do not apply to people with "abnormal" physiques, i.e. people with abnormal ratios of muscle versus fat due to weight-training or due to them being top athletes.

To put it another way, it's not OK to be the same weight and height as Johnny if your weight is carried as fat, compared to his muscle.

To put it even more simply, if you have his measurement, and you don't do weights, and aren't expecting an England call-up soon, you're fat.

That's what I was implying, I'm 180m and 84 kilos but I'm also in shape

[IR35 Avoider]

Fair enough. But, from memory ,in shape (for BMI exemption purposes) means a few hours physical training per day. And not just any exercise, it must actually build muscle. I row for 24 minutes a day, but even if I rowed for four hours solid five days a week it would not count because the rowing machine is on a low resistance setting, so I would not be building muscle.

Edit: I think you can confirm whether BMI applies to you by measuring body fat percentage - but Google knows more than I do.

Edit 2: Your measurements have you as only fractionally overweight anyway, not worth worrying about.

Yes!!!

I think I win the fat bastard award based on me being vertically challenged

Fecking Fat welsh blokes 231 pounds 5' 6"

But like MF I don't look really fat as I wear really heavy clothes.
