Muscle tone can influence body mass index (BMI) by affecting overall body composition. Individuals with higher muscle tone typically have a greater proportion of lean muscle mass compared to fat, which can lead to a higher BMI even if they are not overweight. This means that BMI may not accurately reflect the health or fitness level of those with significant muscle tone, as it does not differentiate between muscle and fat. Consequently, people with high muscle tone might have a higher BMI but still be healthy and fit.
