Now an actual body fat standard, maybe but has to be a tank measured one, not the BS rope and choke the military uses.

At 295 i taped in at 25% BF.
At 245, i taped in at 30%

Same muscle mass. Only 2 months between tapings.

Yeah if they were going to use BMI, it would have to be rope-and-choke screen by the AME, and if you didn't pass that go to a tank for an accurate measurement.
