Body Measurements
Instructions
To measure, begin by obtaining a tailor’s-style tape measure. When measuring, pull the tape flat over and/or around the skin. For accurate results, make sure to be consistent in how you measure each body area. If you measure at a point 1” higher or lower around your thigh, for example, it will make a big difference, and even be confusing when looking at the results.
Below right is a list of body areas to measure regularly. As you repeat the measurements over time, you will track increases or decreases in size. However, these changes should be tracked along with lean muscle tissue and fat (body fat percentage).
This will be done for you using specialized equipment with your BioMeta3 program. Click here to request a free consultation and get started.
