Plugging in a few test numbers in the following CDC calculator yields interesting results. https://www.cdc.gov/healthyweight/assessing/bmi/adult_bmi/english_bmi_calculator/bmi_calculator.html https://www.cdc.gov/healthyweight/assessing/bmi/adult_bmi/en... Luckily I fall into the "normal" category, but trying a few variations suggests to me that clinically obese is not necessarily the same as what I think most people would consider "classically" obese. Certainly some very fit/muscular people and even elite athletes such as Alex Ovechkin are (very nearly) clinically obese. Perhaps it is time to add a few more parameters to the obesity calculator.
