A well toned man with a layer of fat can be considered obese, maybe even morbidly obese, yet he could lift up your honda civic. BMI is terrible measurement.

I don't think someone who is "well toned" would have a layer of fat (or nothing significant to mention).

It's obviously pretty useless for athletes etc, but not many people are. You know if it's a relevant calculation, so it's up to you to lie to yourself. Which I am in no way insisting you are!
