I'm looking to do a before and after of my measurements. Does anyone know where ppl usually measure besides waist, hip and neck? Especially on women.

    I just started measuring today and I'm also measuring thighs and upper arm - those are some of my problem areas that I would like to see a difference in.

    Another common spot is the chest.

    I also measure below the belly button, commonly referred to as the "pooch"

    I had a fitness assessment a couple weeks ago and the P.T. measured:

    neck
    chest
    biceps
    waist
    thighs - she had me stand with feet hip-width apart and put the measuring leg at an angle so my feet was resting diagonally to the other, so you can get the WHOLE thigh at the widest part.
    calves

    Thanks! I realized I had a measuring tape at home and thought why not measure and see what my progress is.
