Your BMI is 22: Your bmi is great, but your body fat may be just a couple of points high, age adjusted. It depends upon how your fat is distributed. If around the waist (>35 inches), a little more dangerous location. Regarding exercise, be sure to get some muscle resistance activity, 20 minutes 3x a week with some moderate cardio on most days of the week. Regardless of the season.
