BMI only has marginal value. Muscle mass can really throw off the numbers. Many (most? all?) NFL running backs have BMIs in the 30s. IIRC many studies have shown that life expectancies are greatest for people with BMIs in the 25-30 range - contrary to the fact that this range puts one as "overweight".
Overall health is much more important than a BMI number for sure.
