Place the soft ruler at the midpoint of the connecting line between the right axillary midline, the upper edge of the hip bone and the lower edge of 12 rib, that is, the narrowest position of the waist, and circle the abdomen horizontally, close to the skin without pressing, and take readings at the end of breath.

Standard measurement

According to the "measurements" of the curvy figure of ordinary women in China, China bodybuilding experts combined with the influence of fitness exercise on human body shape, summed up the calculation method of the standard measurements of women:

Chest circumference = height ×0.535, waist circumference = height ×0.365 and hip circumference = height ×0.565. According to the statistical results, the "measurements" are less than 5 cm, indicating that they are too slim (thin); More than 5 cm indicates that it is too plump (overweight).

Professional female models are measured differently. Due to professional needs, their measurement standards have a certain gap with the normal standards.

According to the national characteristics of our country, the standards of measurements are generally 84cm chest circumference, 6 1cm waist circumference and 90cm hip circumference. .
