1. Take your “before” circumference measurements. Get a simple tape measure and measure four locations: both upper arms (mid-bicep), waist (horizontal at navel), hips (at widest point below waist), and both legs (mid-thigh). Total these numbers to arrive at your Total Inches (TI). Changes in this total will be meaningful enough to track. 2. Estimate your bodyfat (BF%) based on the “Eyeballing It” sidebar on this page. 3. Choose the best tool and schedule a session.
