HOW ACCURATE IS BMI AND DOES IT EVEN REALLY MATTER?

BMI or Body Mass Index is the standard tool for health assessment used in most healthcare facilities these days. While this “tool” is used by most doctors these days, a large percentage of doctors don’t even speak with their patients on how to improve their score, things they need to change in their lifestyle, how to exercise properly, or even what they should change with their diet.

It's not accurate and it doesn't matter because there is only a percentage of the population where it would be considered a decent baseline. My doc and TRT specialists have all done away with it as a gauge.

Especially for people that lift, it doesn't mean anything.
