There is a away of measuring bmi using height and waist size that is a very good indicator of body fat.

If you have a small waist/belly and are heavier than average for your height it's probably muscle. If you have a large waist/belly and are heavier than average for your height you're probably fat.

Of course physical activity and diet is also a concern when measuring bmi!
