Girths Measurement: Chest

anthropometrics May 22, 2023
Chest

To measure a client's chest girth, follow these steps:

1. Ask the client to remove any bulky clothing and to stand up straight with their arms at their sides.
2. Locate the bottom of the client's ribcage, which is the lowest point of the chest.
3. Place the tape measure or string just below the bottom of the ribcage, around the client's chest, making sure it's snug but not too tight.
4. Ask the client to take a deep breath and then exhale normally.
5. Make sure the tape measure or string is level and straight around the client's chest.
6. Read the measurement on the tape measure or mark the string and measure it afterward.

Once you have measured the client's chest girth, you can use this information to track changes in chest size, which can be helpful in evaluating fitness progress and determining appropriate clothing sizes. You can also use this information to create a personalized fitness plan for the client that includes exercises to target the chest muscles.
