Before you start any fitness program or new workout routine, I always advise my challengers to take their measurements. No matter how much you are dreading this moment, it is a must.
WHY?
Because you want to have something compare to week after week and when you hit your 30 day mark. It is a good idea to do this because when you get frustrated or you feel like you are not seeing results you can get out your journal and see how far you have come.
Tracker sheet to keep your measurements |
Bust: Place the measuring tape across your chest and measure around the largest part of your chest. Be sure to keep the tape parallel to the floor.
Chest: Place the measuring tape just under your breasts/pecs and measure around the torso while keeping the tape parallel to the floor.
Waist: Place the measuring tape about a 1/2 inch above your bellybutton (at the narrowest part of your waist) to measure around your torso. When measuring your waist, exhale and measure before inhaling again.
Hips: Place the measuring tape across the widest part of your hips/buttocks and measure all the way around while keeping the tape parallel to the floor.
Thigh: Measure around the largest part of each thigh.
Calves: Measure around the largest part of each calf.
Upper arm: Measure around the largest part of each arm (above the elbow).
Forearm: Measure around the largest part of each arm (below the elbow).
First tip - write down the time & day you take your starting measurements. You will want to make sure you do this the same time & day every week.
Second tip - wear light shorts and a sports bra. but make sure it is the same clothes each week.
Third tip - this may be the part where you just don't want to, but remember these are your "goodbye" measurements. Let it be motivation to kick butt.
