Oh, and by those charts, I'm morbidly obese. My ideal weight is something like 160 (which I hit once in college). At 160, I look like a malnurished stick. Right now, I weigh around 270.
Yep, I'm incredibly obese. I swim 2-4 miles a week, run 8-12 miles a week, bench press repping at 355, and leg press repping at 690. I've put on quite a bit of muscle since my college days, and probably carry 20-30 lbs of excess fat, but according to those charts, they treat every pound over 160 like excess fat, and do not take into account type of build.
