Japanese scholar Masamitsu Oshima calculated the conversion coefficient of female figure from male data (excerpt): chest circumference coefficient is 90%, waist circumference coefficient is 89%, and hip circumference coefficient is 102%.
[bust = height (cm) ×0.535], [waist = height (cm) ×0.365], [hip = height (cm) ×0.565]. According to the statistical results, the "measurements" are less than 5 cm, indicating that they are too slim (thin); More than 5 cm indicates that it is too plump (overweight).
The measurement index consists of three indicators, and its calculation method is as follows:
Bust index) = (bust/height) × 100
Waist circumference index) = (waist circumference/height) × 100
Hip index) = (hip circumference/height) × 100
Extended data
The method of measuring waist-hip ratio is very simple, that is, first measure the waist circumference and hip circumference, and then divide the waist circumference figure by hip circumference figure to get the ratio. If the female is below 0.85 and the male is not greater than 0.9, it means that it is within the healthy range. Waist-to-hip ratio of white men >: 1.0, and waist-to-hip ratio of women >; 0.85, for abdominal fat accumulation.
Researchers emphasize that exercise is the best way to reduce fat, and it can also strengthen the muscles of lower limbs; Dieting can not effectively change the waist-hip ratio.
For example, paying attention to the waist-hip ratio can help you know your health status at any time and establish a warning line for yourself, which is a very effective health indicator.
