My employer had one of those physical checkups for a lowered rate on insurance. I'm 5'10", 215 pounds[1]. The doctor sighed and said that he was required to tell me that according to BMI, I was obese and should consider losing weight. We had a good laugh about it.
My body-fat percentage is definitely not 5%, though. My guess is that it's around 14-15%. Everyone drastically underestimates how low their body-fat percentage is, and I am not a bodybuilder. I lift heavy and like pasta.
