So, been hanging out here, getting good advice/info and I always see, "post your bw with ranges." Now, the stuff I've read shows the ranges really don't mean much of anything. I've read the ranges are established by the testing lab based on the average range of results they've gotten from the people they've tested. This explains why each lab has a different range. Here is a link to an article explaining this.

So my question is, why does everyone ask for the ranges when posting bw? Seems to me the ranges really tell us nothing about what's going on with the person who was tested.

Obviously, I could be totally missing something.

Thanks.
