8 Week Body Transformation: Measurement Sites
Hey San Antonio,
Since I’m not available to measure each and everyone and help them make an assessment of their progress, here are the sites that I’ll recommend you perform circumference measurements to help track your progress. A little disclaimer here – I’d recommend taking a pic of yourself in shorts (or a bikini for females) and using that as your progress indicator and to track your progress, as this provides visible proof aside from metrics.
Neck – center of the neck
Shoulders – top of the chest, around 3-4 inches down on the arms
Chest – center of the chest
Abdominal – belly button
Hips (females) – largest visible point
Quads – approx 4″ up from knee
Arms – middle of the tricep, largest part of the upper arm
These are rough estimates, and due to different builds, everyone is different when measuring. The key is to be consistent and to measure in the same place each time you measure.
I recommend weekly or measuring every other week to ensure you are staying on course. Of course, the more often you measure, the less progress you will notice each time, but be patient.
