Heh, I did notice some thicc shot putters in the Olympics.

This gold medalist is 6'7", 320lbs and doesn't even look overweight... I plugged that into a BMI calculator and it comes back with 36.

BMI Categories:
Underweight = <18.5
Normal weight = 18.5–24.9
Overweight = 25–29.9
Obesity = BMI of 30 or greater
