I view BMI as one of many kpis to manage.

Think of weight as being potentially harmful over time (later in life) to joints, muscles and heart. All things being equal, the heart, joints and muscles have an easier job to do if there is less weight to contend with.

Even with low body fat percentage, for a heavier individual the heart, muscles and joints have to do more than they would otherwise have to do if the individual had less weight.

BMI is not a cosmetic or aesthetic kpi. You may like how you look, but BMI suggests thinking about how much weight is being carried for your height.
