Well, if your BF% is accurate, there shouldn't be any doubt in your mind if you're overweight. You would look extremely ripped at 8%. Generally most guys can see their abdominal muscles at 12%, but it depends upon the individual.

im not really that toned, i am in areas but im mostly a small person.

u need to gain about 25lbs not lose 5.
i dont mean by eating them on.
i mean get a gym membership and hit the weights.

Guys, its not fair to get mad at this dude. Some people get more obsessive about weight then others-- and some just don't understand all the statistics.

I'd say you're good dude. You're fine, but a little working out could do nothing but help you. I am 5'10", and I weigh about 170. I don't consider myself fat, or even overweight, just chubby. I look at overweight being when you can't go through your normal routine without getting tired. If you can walk a mile and not be huffing and puffing, or work out for 15 minutes and not be huffing and puffing and sweating like theres no tomorrow, then you're not overweight.

Theres no reason to obsess, just because you're not ripped and very well toned doesn't mean you're not skinny or not physically fit.

Well, less like its not fair and more like its just mean to get mad at him. Not everybody knows everything, and no reason to get mad at him in his thread. He asked a question, you didn't even have to read it, let alone get mad at him because you chose to click on the thread.

Yer well... for peoples knowledge, i run triathlons, if i weigh to much it will slow me down, so i spend my life keeping my weight down, and for those of u who seem to be upset or annoyed at my question i am so sincerely sorry for any offense or irritation i caused you, i will try my best to prevent it in the future.

it should be an obvious answer.
questions like this are so inconsiderate.
there is no rule that if you disagree with a thread; don't click and don't post.
no.
people give opinions. negative AND positive.

no. you're not over-weight. and if you are a person who likes sport, your health should come first.

Im just wondering, how my query was inconsiderate? im also wondering why you would say that it is inconsiderate after i said sorry about the unwanted and unwilling offense i caused? Im just wondering what the reason was?

And again, i apologize most sincerely for the offense i caused on the thread.

you don't need to apologise.
some people are self concious when it comes to weight.
some people are overweight.
some people aren't but are close.

then someone who is of ideal weight, maybe even UNDERweight asks if they're overweight. people just tend to think 'what the fuck does that make ME?'
