Another common misconception is that one is still healthy with high BMI that comes from having lots of muscle. It's not clear that lots of muscle is healthy.

Very very few people are in that category, and usually they have undiagnosed mental disorders. I don't even think it's possible to be leanish and have a BMI in the obese category from muscles without taking steroids or other products.
