BMI categories include underweight- less than 18.5,  normal ranging from 18.5 to 24.9; overweight ranging from 25 to 29.9 and obesity with a BMI of 30 or greater. However BMI does have limitations; it often overestimated figures for body fat and athletes and people with more muscular builds and also an under estimation of body fat in older persons on those experiencing muscle loss.
