Yeah that means for every 5 pounds you weigh, 1 pound is fat.

It is meant to be used as a simple means of classifying sedentary (physically inactive) individuals with an average (mesomorphic) body composition. For these individuals, the current value settings are as follows: a BMI of 25 may indicate optimal weight; a BMI lower than 18.5 suggests the person is underweight while a number above 25 may indicate the person is overweight; a BMI below 15 may indicate the person has an eating disorder; a number above 30 suggests the person is obese (over 40, morbidly obese).

No, it's average for a male or female or a bit under for some females.
Girls are supposed to have more fat, about 25% more than men.
20 is pretty good.

That is considered lean for a female and normal for a guy
