Measurement Breakdown
Submit dimensions to view structural variance analysis data points.
Ensure measurements are taken while standing upright with your tape parallel to the floor. Ensure the measuring tape is pulled snug but not tight against the body.

How to Measure Your Body Type

Everyone has their own genetic makeup that influences their body shape and how their body distributes fat mass. Use a soft measuring tape parallel to the floor to take each of these measurements:

  • Bust: Take the measurement at the fullest point of your bust. Make sure that the tape is not too tight so you can inhale and exhale freely.
  • Waist: Measure your waist at the narrowest portion just above your navel.
  • High Hip: The upper swell mapping of the pelvic region, crossing over the prominent lateral iliac crest arcs (roughly 7 inches or 18 cm deep of the natural waist line).
  • Hips (Low): Stand up straight and wrap the tape measure around the widest part of the hips as viewed from the side.

What Your Type Reveals About Your Health

Knowing what your body type is plays a significant role in understanding the best dietary choices and exercise routines. While fashion shapes guide outfits, internal visceral fat distribution is an indicator of metabolic and cardiovascular longevity.

Metabolic Adiposity Flags

According to the CDC, females with a waist measurement of 35 inches or more (40 inches for males) or a Waist-to-Hip ratio exceeding 0.85 can flag higher central visceral fat levels. This pattern may increase risk variations for diabetes and cardiovascular issues.
