How to Measure-For reference!

Step 1 (Waist): Wrap the measuring tape around your natural waist area of the torso to take the waist measurement. This point is approximately 2 inches above the hipbone.

Step 2 (Hips): Measure the hip circumference by placing the measuring tape right above the pubic bone at hip level. Wrap the tape over gluteus muscle so you are measuring the widest area of the hips.

Step 3 (Chest): Measure the chest by wrapping the measuring tape under the armpits and around to the front of the chest at the widest part. Ask someone to assist you with this measurement so you can keep your arms down against the side of the body for a natural measurement. (When I can't get help with this, I do it in a mirror and just try my best.)

Step 4(Thighs): Wrap the measuring tape around the thigh at the highest point of the muscle. This point is just under the pubic bone. Measure each thigh and record the numbers separately.

Step 5 (Calves): Measure the calf muscle by wrapping the measuring tape around thickest area of the muscle. This is approximately the halfway point from the knee to the ankle. Measure each calf and record the numbers separately.

Step 6 (Arms): Measure the bicep area of the arm by wrapping the measuring tape at the point halfway from the elbow to the armpit. Keep your arm relaxed to get a measurement of the arm in a natural state. Measure each bicep and record the numbers separately. (Also a more tricky one to do on your own, but I also do it in a mirror and it works out okay).

Tip: Use a flexible measuring tape. Pull the measuring tape snug without compressing the skin to get an accurate measurement.

Once you've completed the measurements, you'll add them all together and send me one number for inches each week.
