How is everyone measuring themselves??
Eg where are you measuring your waist? The narrowest part??
I found this info online:
Waist
Measure the waist a few centemeters above the hips. Relax. This is the accurate measurement.
Stomach
The stomach measurement is very close to the waist measurement but a few centemetres above the waist, where the "love handles" occur. Relax when taking this measurement, (neither draw your stomach in nor stick it out.).
(Hmmm - I don't like either of those places to measure the waist!! I think it is around the bellybutton level... well that's where I'm measuring it!!) Any other suggestions??
Hips
Measuring the hips gives us the size of the hips and of the gluteal muscles or ?the behind?. Simply measure all the way around at hip level catching the broadest part of the hips and the seat of your pants. This is the proper hip measurement.
Biceps
Wrap the tape measure around the extended upper arm. Now make a muscle pumping your upper arm and lower arm together. Double check to make sure that the tape spans the broadest parts of your triceps (bottom) and biceps (top) of the upper arm. This is the accurate measurement.
Thighs
Wrap the tape around the upper leg as high up as possible. Now flex and extend outward the thigh muscles and this will give you the correct size for your thighs.
