How to Take Your 360 Wellness Measurements at Home
Use a soft measuring tape, wear fitted clothing (or measure over bare skin), and stand tall with feet hip-width apart. Keep the tape level and snug—but not tight—around each area.
1. Arm Measurement
Where to measure: Around the fullest part of your upper arm, halfway between your shoulder and elbow.
How to do it:
Relax your arm by your side.
Do not flex.
Keep the tape horizontal and gently fitted.
Record the measurement to the nearest 0.5 inch or centimeter.
2. Belly Button (Waist) Measurement
Where to measure: Wrap the tape around your torso at the level of your belly button.
How to do it:
Stand naturally—don’t suck in your stomach.
Keep the tape even all the way around.
Take the measurement after a normal exhale.
Record your number.
3. Hips Measurement
Where to measure: Around the widest part of your hips and glutes.
How to do it:
Stand with feet together.
Wrap the tape around the fullest part of your lower body.
Check in a mirror to be sure the tape is level.
Record your number.
4. Leg (Thigh) Measurement —
Where to measure: Around the middle of your thigh, exactly halfway between your hip crease and your knee.(This avoids measuring too close to the glutes or too low on the leg.)
How to do it:
Stand tall with equal weight on both feet.
Locate the midpoint between your hip and knee.
Wrap the tape around that center point.
Keep the tape snug but not pressing into the skin.
Record your measurement.
Tips for Accuracy
Measure at the same time of day each time (preferably morning).
Take each measurement twice and use the average.
Stand in front of a mirror to confirm the tape stays level.
Stay consistent with your measuring spots each time.
