Chest circumference = height (cm) ×0.535, waist circumference = height (cm) ×0.365 and hip circumference = 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).
Professional female models are measured differently. Due to professional needs, their measurement standards have a certain gap with the normal standards.

waist hip ratio
Waist-to-hip ratio = waist circumference/hip circumference: the average Asian male is 0.8 1, and the average Asian female is 0.73; European and American men average 0.85, and European and American women average 0.75. It can be seen that the average waist-hip ratio of men is obviously greater than that of women, and the gender difference is obvious.
Waist-to-hip ratio is an index to predict obesity in this study. The smaller the proportion, the healthier it is. This is a better way to predict whether a person is obese and whether he is at risk of heart disease. A large waistline indicates that there is fat in the abdomen, which is a signal of greater danger. Moreover, a person's hip circumference is large, which shows that his lower body is muscular and beneficial to people's health.
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.
