BMI is a screening tool, not a diagnosis

BMI is useful at population level and as a quick screening metric, but it can misclassify muscular athletes. Use it alongside performance, waist measurement, recovery, and medical guidance where appropriate.

FAQ

Yes. Higher lean mass can inflate BMI. Treat it as one data point, not the final answer.

Aerobic capacity, strength/endurance, waist circumference, recovery/sleep, and health screenings.

No. It’s educational. If you have concerns, consult a qualified clinician.

Job demands and PPE load change what “fit for duty” looks like; context matters.

References & Notes

  • Consult local department wellness/fitness programs and medical professionals for individualized guidance.
