People with a muscular build tend to have a high BMI despite a low body fat percentage,
which can lead to a classification as obese; therefore, standard body weight is calculated based on body fat percentage.

A formula for calculating standard weight based on body fat percentage rather than BMI
Since BMI does not account for all body types, set your target weight based on body fat percentage.
(The default values are for a person who is 180 cm tall, has a body fat percentage of 14%, and weighs 80 kg. The formula calculates the BMI and target weight if their body fat percentage is reduced to 9%. A person who is 180 cm tall, weighs 80 kg, and is actively involved in sports would be considered to have a normal body type.)

The above shows the average BMI of athletes—soccer players are a good example.
Since I think body fat percentage is more important for actual health, I decided to create this chart.

BMI is merely a guideline and is not an indicator that applies to everyone.
