The time is now to begin your transformation! All YOU have to do is start!!! Grab a tape measure and pen, and lets get a starting point to track your success!
The printable diagram shows you all the spots you should measure. Within a few weeks of following the program and proper diet you are going to see these numbers begin to shrink. Losing inches might just be the most gratifying part of this whole experience. If you do not have a tape measure (soft version) then you can always use string and then measure it against a regular tape measure. Just make sure you’re very precise!
Body Burn Measurement Chart (click to download and print)
1. Arms: Measure the circumference of your bicep at the mid point between your elbow and shoulder.
2. Bust: You will measure the along the nipples around your back and find your starting circumference.
3. Waist: Your waist will change and MOVE!! So always use your belly button as your measurement point.
4. Hips: Find the top of your hip bones and measure the circumference.
5.) Widest Part – With is actually mid butt.
6.) Thighs – Measure 6 inches up from to highest point on your knee cap. Then measure your thigh.
7.) Knee measurement – Measure directly up from the knee cap.
8.) Calves: You will want to record the circumference of the largest part of your calf. Usually mid Calf which is an additional measurement that’s not listed on the chart above.
Weight: Always use the same scale. Don’t overdo the scale, it’s just a number! I am more concerned about your inches! I prefer that people measure every 2 -3 weeks (that’s including the scale). In the beginning you will be trading out fat for lean body mass. Lean body mass (muscle) weighs more then fat BUT takes up 10x LESSS SPACE! That’s why it’s so important to measure!
Trainer tips for the Scale: Weigh at the same time (I prefer mornings), without clothes and preferably on an empty stomach!
