You got to realize, the greek body thing is a myth really. If we were all Greek or of southern europe decent then this would apply apply.
At 6'2", a 36" waist is normal. Your over all bodyfat is more like 14% Remember those bf scales ylou stand on will record you between 5-8% points higher than you really are. They do not take into account the upper body above the waist line. They can't sens a current up that high. And the hand held bf measureing device records you aare aboput 6% points heavier than you are.
And caliper est are only accurate if ylou are not retainng water and most fitness instructors c alcualte it wron anyway.
Seriously trying to force a 6' man to obtains anything less than a 34" waist line is barbaric and cruel.
