Girths Measurement: Wrist
May 22, 2023To measure wrist girth, follow these steps:
1. Use a flexible tape measure or a piece of string that can be measured afterward.
2. Hold your arm out in front of you with your palm facing up.
3. Use your other hand to locate the bony prominence on the side of your wrist, called the styloid process.
4. Place the tape measure or string just below the styloid process, snugly but not too tightly around your wrist.
5. Make sure the tape measure or string is level and straight around your wrist.
6. Read the measurement on the tape measure or mark the string and measure it afterward.
Wrist girth measurement is often used in determining body frame size, which can be helpful in evaluating weight and body composition.
