Idk if it’s just bc im in the south but negros still addicted to slave food. I got an uncle to frys chicken backs for a snack. It’s crazy to me when we have family dinners how much garbage they think is real food.

Yeah I still do slight workouts but don't do as much as I should. Just funny because like you said the womenz love the pudge but I do get a little self conscious about it at times

Across all racial and ethnic divisions physical fitness is on the decline and that descent to some degree is encouraged.

How do they define obese?

Same way we do NT thick maybe?

How do they define obese?

This ... because the BMI chart is so outdated

Right. Black women being so high made me wonder how they define it.

 

[Magic33]

One issue is that the body mass chart doesn't take in to account muscle.

a lot of running backs in the NFL would be considered obese

 

[oidreez]

Why is black men singled out in the title when it's not even the largest group on the chart?

 

[eracism]

man just called himself slim thick

And didn't post pics.

Lifestyle, video games and the food we consume.

Nobody even wants to walk. I notice people will drive around at my gym looking for a close parking spot. At the gym of all places you would think people wouldn't mind walking

Any time I see Black men in the title here on NikeTalk, I know that something is up.

BMI was created for white people to follow, which is based upon white male supremacy in the attempt to create the image of perfect health and what it should LOOK like. The study was done in Greenwich CT back in the 20th century, with seven to twelve white males in the age group of forty. It did not take into account genetics, and then from what region people are from ancestrally, as there is such a thing as HEALTHY fat. People of Norse origin come into play here, and they did not take into account muscular and bone density in regard to weight distribution.

Just like anything else in this world, if a theory was supposedly discovered by whites for whites? The theory will be rife with mistakes in order to prove white people to be superior.
