the US is still number one since it has a larger population and thus more obese people. australia just has a slightly larger % of our ppl that are obese, its misleading....but christ their is no excuse for being overweight in a country like australia where their is so much to do outside where u can get exercise.

Exercise like Cricket ... man I miss throwing a few overs, but yeah, whether it be through visual perception through media or whatever, I never would have envisaged Australia as being a country with a high obesity rate at all. I'd also thought of you as generally being a highly active culture.

You only have to look at how successful you are at sport in general, you'd think this amount of publicised success would have a knock-on effect to the general public, who'd see that and want to take up a sport.

It's not misleading at all. What you said is blatantly obvious to anybody who reads the article. Also, are you being serious with that last comment about how there is so much to do outside? Fucking look at America, you moron. How much is there to do here? Are you blind?

I'm always confused by studies like this.

The simple street test. Go outside, down to the local shopping centre, or walk around the city for a bit, I can gaurantee you 66% of the population isn't overweight. I just can't fathom where they get these numbers.

And yes I know the situation is the same in the US, I don't think that 66% of the general population isn't overweight having been there and seen it for myself.

Correct.

BMI stands for "Body Mass Index" which is weight divided by height squared.

It's a bullshit number which does nothing to represent one's health, because people with very high muscle mass tend to appear obese under this system.

Conversely, at school I was "officially" anorexic under the BMI system, when in fact I was mostly lean muscle and around 3% fat, as is normal for elite athletes, but unhealthy for anyone not doing high intensity training.

BMI coupled with a fat perecentage test is a far more accurate way of measuring how much of the population is overweight.

Anyway, fuck that, I'm off to have some popcorn chicken with my long time friend, The Colonel.
