I’m very confident my knee pain comes from load carrying. If I add the average load carried to my bodyweight, I had a BMI of >40 for over a decade, definitely falls on line with your theory!
I would guess external load doesn’t have the same heart effect as body mass, but again, out of my depth.
Not osteoporosis. Osterarthritis. Besides, being overweight (think bmi) regardless of if it is fat or muscle is bad for your knees and heart.
