Is 5'9 tall and 165 lbs for a medium-framed adult male considered overweight?

Yes it's overweight

It's slightly overweight

It's normal range

you are perfectly normal, i was your weight when i had my almost perfect body and i'me either same hegiht as you or 1 inch or so taller.

keep your fat level low and work out (even push ups and sit ups are enough) regularly

4 set, 2 times a day, 50 preps for each set if you are a new beginner or didn't work out for a time period.

you can be sore maybe but no pain no gain, i was basically squirming from pain when i started at high school but it worked out for the good.

When I played football I was 6' weighed 210.
I had 56" shoulders and a 34" waist, yet according to the charts I was obese.
A lot depends on your build.
I had the tests done and they figured that just my bone structure, muscle and innards I weighed 180lbs. and that was still overweight without any fat at all.
So much for the charts.

That seems right about where you should be. I think the only time that would not be a good weight is if you have VERY high or VERY low muscle mass.

Sounds underweight unless you're naturally skinny
