I'm at the limit, I cannot build anymore muscle except maybe on my legs. Not without getting on gear and shriveling my balls. I've always had incredibly high testosterone, it's inherited. My dad is a gorilla, I'm merely a chimp though. A relative manlet, everyone else in my family is over 195cm tall. Mainly because of my stunted chimp legs. I have the torso and arms of a 2m guy.
BMI is a feeble measure however I wouldn't call some bodybuilders and most strongmen terribly healthy, they're obviously blown up and in the case of bodybuilders they have dangerously low fat content. But their primary ailment is growth of internal organs due to use of anabolics. Enlarged liver, heart, kidneys, guts etc are a bad combination. This happens when you start juicing young and do it for years.
When it comes to general health BMI is idotic across the board because highly anabolically active tissue like muscle actually helps regulate cardiovascular function and protects the heart and major organs from fuckery.
I think after 50's I will start taking hormone supplements because testosterone levels drop dramatically in 40's- I never want to shrivel up into a true manlet.
And @godstud you look damn good. Must be the lifestyle. And that's key. How you live and act defines what you look like. Instead of promoting the fat lifestyle, fat people should consider changing up their lifestyle. I know it's hormonal in some cases, my sister has poly-cystic ovarian induced Hypothyroidism. Her appetite is out of control and she has to be on meal plans 24/7. She's still lost most of her excess teenage weight in her twenties and is now very healthy. Lifestyle.

If Igor is natural, then his FFMI is at most 25:
