What is overweight?

Overweight is generally defined as having more body fat than is optimally healthy. Being overweight is a common condition, especially where food supplies are plentiful and lifestyles are sedentary. Actually, being overweight is defined as a BMI over 25.0. It does not necessarily (it usually does, but not always) mean that you have too much body fat. Just as an example, bodybuilders who have a lot of muscle can also be overweight (but are athletic). Regardless, it's usually better to try to maintain a healthy weight and avoid being overweight or obese with a healthy balanced diet and proper exercise.

Why are a lot of cops overweight these days?

Cops are overweight for the same reason that many Americans are overweight--obesity is a major health problem in the United States. Most law enforcement agencies have no physical fitness requirements for officers once they have completed the police academy. Many police departments offer pay incentives for officers that maintain a high level of physical fitness, but there are no penalties for being out of shape.
