Just a suggestion from one trainer to another: When measuring the hips, I always stand/kneel to the side of the hips to avoid being directly in front of their genitals which also mitigates the unwanted and embarrassing touching of them.
Very helpful. Thank you for displaying the proper way to measure. I just started a new training routine and wanted to see how it will affect my body. This video is just what I needed.👍
I agree personally people like you I would pay as you can see you are more genuine. If I had to pay for trainer, Mr Herman I would choose you sir. I was in the gym and so many people talk about fitness videos on RUclips, we all agreed that Mike is a marketing moneyman, lol. However, we all agreed that we all started by watching your videos Scott. You have motivated so many people it is unreal, thank you sir! In Scott we trust :)
I am a beginner to weightlifting - or exercising in general. I'm only 14 and have been working out on a boflex (only thing I have availible to workout on) for about a month now working out 3 to 4 days a week. I also run 2 miles twice a week. I am incredibly skinny and I wish to become bigger so I'm coming to youtube to ask for advice. I'm only 127 pounds, 5'7 I eat lots of food to try and gain weight but it seems as if my stomach is a blackhole, I can eat a cake and lose calories doing it. (That's sadly only a slight exaggeration - I know my metabolism will slow down once I'm done maturing but I can't take looking like the way I do for much longer.) Measurements: Arm - 10.75 Forearm - 10.5 Chest - 30.5 Shoulder - 38.3 Waist - 27 Hip - 33.8 Thigh - 19 Calf - 14.5 Neck - 13.5 I have pectus excavatum which leads me to be very subconscious about my body and I'm hoping that if I got more muscle my deformity will be less obvious. Another problem I've noticed is my arms are incredibly small in width then large in length making it appear as if I'm a stick from certain angles. Is there a fix to something like this? Thanks you for taking the time to read this.
Eat. More. Food. Only way to help u. Eat your weight in grams of protein so if you wanna be 160lbs eat 160grams of protein. Start eating 3000 calories this week then gradually go up by 250 to 500 more every week. Do a push pull leg split or any 3 day or a full body split as soon as your able to go to a gym. If not invest In light dumbells 20 to 30lbs to do all sorts of exercises. Ex lunges, shoulder raises, curls, triceps extensions, flies if u have some kind of bench. Find a pull up bar u can use or hang off of. There is tons of ways to workout at home just make sure your ALWAYS IN RECOVERY for every muscle. What I mean by that is try and workout with enough intensity to make each muscle sore for a few days until u hit it again. Everyone is different so the intensity will be different but I use drop sets so when I hit my push day or whatever I don't spend 3hrs in the gym. Most important thing is consistency. Don't miss meals u cannot afford to if I don't eat for even 4 hours I'll start to become catabolic which means I am staving and losing weight. Don't over train either a way to see if u are is by squeezing your fist and if u feel u could be squeezing harder but can't u need a rest day your central nervous system needs to recover. Very important. And keep your protein up high everyday it is the building blocks to making gains. Get 8hrs sleep everyday and do this for years.
NEVER take steroids. I'm a doctor. Stay natural throughout your entire life. They screw you up. Just get decently big over several years and leave it there. There's more to life than muscles and girls don't care as much as you think.
GOOD ONE SCOTTIE!! i knew you would make this video sooner or later an the part that helped me the most was the chest measurement as i never knew how to do that one.
Very informative indeed...I have never really measured my gains...this has most certainly given me the push to do so! Thanks for the upload Scott, and once again, a great job in motivating and guiding us in the right direction. Now, where's that darned measure tape...
Will most certainly do so Scott. I have actually messed up my old profile at SHF and don't remember any login details but will open a new profile soon and try to be more active from now on. Thanks for the constant support though, much appreciated!
I am skinny af . Working out for last 2 months . Weight went from 130 lbs to 153 lbs in two months . Body fat % -12 Neck -15 , Shoulders -47.5 , chest - 40 , arms - 13.2 , forearms - 11.5 , thighs - 21.5 , calves -14.5 , wrist - 6.5 , ankles - 8.5 .
Ummm 😐 you let the MT fall down when you measures his chest like wtf you said just below armpits then you let it go for a second and it fell way lower so idk what to do should I also do that ?
Measuring the shoulders across seems more accurate since people judge the width of your shoulders anyways, plus if you grow your chest and back that will lengthen the measurement of your shoulders even if your shoulders didn't grow.
That's not bad, good work for your age.. How long are you training? I haven't measured in about 6 months but my measurements were Biceps: 14" Forearms: 11" Neck: 14.5" Waist: 31" Chest: 42" Thighs: 22.5" Calves: 13.5" I am 22 years old, between 5'8-5'9 and weigh around 160, been training with weights for around 3 years and with cardio, boxing, calisthenics and other stuff for a couple of years before that, I have a very small frame, wrists are 6.25" and ankles are 7.5". Bench pressed 90 KG this week and I can squeeze out a 150 kilo deadlift
Two extra things to measure, wrists and height. These with some of the other measurements can help track bodyfat % based depending on the formula(s) of choice. And because simmetry is important, remember to measure both left and right. Chest - I like to measure expansion. That means knowing the measurements of both a deep inhalation and full expiration. Me personaly for the arms, I keep them straight and out to the sides (like I'm standing in a T position). Makes the measurement more reliable over time. For the abs, I like to tell people to brace for a punch to the gut (or prepare for a heavy dead lift). You don't push out or suck in, rather you simply brace. Again, a technique for reliable measurements.

When should you do this before or after working out? Or in the morning when you wake up or before you sleep or does it matter as long as you do the same time next time?
You should do this only before working out. This is due to the fact that your muscles never pump up the same amount after each workout, since each workout has a different intensity for instance. That would lead to fluctuating measurements and mislead you from your true progress. You should also try and measure around the same time of the day, such as right after you wake up, before you've performed any physical activity nor had any breakfast, which both also affect your measurements. All in all, it is best to measure under circumstances with the least possible different factors that may deviate your measurements from the true results.
so what fo you do if youre trying to cut body fat while building muscle? how would you properly track the mass? would i just have to wait till im at a bidy fat% i like, and then start tracking mass? im just nervous im loosing muscle rather than fat, so far ive lost 7 pounds after hard dieting and still getting 1.5g/lb of body weight, and im still lifting properly. i just eant to make sure my diet is right so that way in two months or so im lean and cut rather skinny with a runners body lol
@@joshuajurado6235 I think he probably just doesn't have much fat in his thighs, you can see he does have visible muscle there. I have a similar build to him, 22.25" thighs and you can't even pinch enough there to get a reading with calipers.
Height: 5'10 Bodyweight: 152lbs (morning) Bodyfat: 12%?

Thank you so much! After dropping 100 pounds in a little over a year, and finding most clothing is cut real box like this will help, but more importantly, as I begin to add muscle I can accurately track my gains!
When should you measure waist size? In the morning, before breakfast, my waist size is about 1 inch smaller compared to an afternoon or evening measurement.
MrBillThunder when u haven’t crapped in 3 or more days. Keep your measurements very modest so if u become a fat fuck and measure again, u won’t be too disappointed
my biceps are pretty much exactly the same measurements but i can see my left is slightly lacking in the inner bicep. any exercises you'd recommend that are the best for targeting the inner bicep using dumbbells?
@@arugorai3451 I've blasted them and trained them hard for months on end since this poat, it's just not that easy for some people but at least they're toned and I won't stress out over my weaker areas. Waist is an inch smaller and chest is an inch bigger
that guy is 6 3 to 6 4. he looks like a soldier. Doesnt look massive but fit enough to hump a 90 lb ruck make his 70 pushups and 18 pull ups. at 5 7 i have these exact measurements but looks more fit.
I measured my shoulders the way he described in the video and mine are 51 and i don't work out, is that wide? I'm about 15-17% bodyfat and my waist is 33 inches.
@@Jay-son. sorry bro for the late answer, i didn't see. Yes your measurements are pretty good, pretty sure you have a wide back. I'm myself 6ft and have 54" shoulders (21" wide), 34" waist at 15/16% (4 pack visible when flexed and all big muscle portions visible, biceps vein when very well pumped) and people use to notice it.
Ankles and wrist size? damn i hate my ankles, they're so thin lol, im 5'7 but my ankles are so thin like under 9inch, is there anyway to make them bigger?
Is that the right way to measure neck because When i measure with straight head its: 42 cm 16.5 inch when do the same you do in the video it turn to 44cm 17.4 inch
@@99drums54 yeah but youre 5'10. a person 6ft tall weighting only 150lbs is not gonna have 15.5 inch biceps lol, there's simply no way. I know because im 6ft tall, im 177lbs and i know for a fact if i was 150lbs i would be skin and bones lol, let alone have anything near 15.5inch biceps. even if i was bulked 200lbs and went down to 150lbs i wouldnt have 15.5inch arms. even with roids it would be hard af to have 15.5inch arms only 150lbs at 6ft tall. You have good stats tho, keep bulking slow and you can probably maintain that lean look while you gain muscle and mass :) im talking barely 2lbs a month cuz 2lbs every month is 24lbs a year
@@99drums54 ah I see, idd. sure training for many years plays a role aswell, i have bigger arms now than i had 7years ago at the same weight etc but yeah 15.5 at 150lbs 6ft is too big xd i have 15inches cold flex at 177lbs but im ecto with only 6.3inch wrist so its hard af for me to get bigger arms ;( since there is a correlation with wrist/ankle size and overall arm size, i guess i should be happy to be 6ft atleast rofl. tho 5'9-5'10 is better for muscle size. if you have a big wrist, lets say 8 inch, your arm is automatically bigger than the guy with 6inch wrist, i fking hate my wrists XD

Maybe he likes to do it in the front.
As a professional Trainer you can get sued by doing this style of measurement on females. Measuring from side is safer .

With the measurements can you calculate your body fat percentage?
No, body fat percentage needs a caliper, which requires measuring the folds of adipose tissue.

When is the best time of the day to do it and how often should we measure? Weekly or monthly?
excellent video,I take the measures every week

Probably the millionth person but...Omg! Real World: Brooklyn! Glad to see you're doing cool things!
Is 19.5 inch shoulders good? 5ft8 lifting for 6 years.
How old are you?
Tbh, It doesn't matter what genetics you have it all comes down to hard work. Btw this is coming from someone who has "good genetics"
While hard work matters genetics defiantly plays a huge role
@@kira-xh5ue yes that is true but that doesn't mean you can't get a good physique
@@accountalt856 yes it’s really not that hard considering 99% of the general population doesn’t even lift social media has really screwed up the standards where we see all these genetic phenoms on juice
When should you do this before or after working out? Or in the morning when you wake up or before you sleep or does it matter as long as you do the same time next time?
You should do this only before working out. This is due to the fact that your muscles never pump up the same amount after each workout, since each workout has a different intensity for instance. That would lead to fluctuating measurements and mislead you from your true progress. You should also try and measure around the same time of the day, such as right after you wake up, before you've performed any physical activity nor had any breakfast, which both also affect your measurements. All in all, it is best to measure under circumstances with the least possible different factors that may deviate your measurements from the true results.
so what fo you do if youre trying to cut body fat while building muscle? how would you properly track the mass? would i just have to wait till im at a bidy fat% i like, and then start tracking mass?
im just nervous im loosing muscle rather than fat, so far ive lost 7 pounds after hard dieting and still getting 1.5g/lb of body weight, and im still lifting properly.
i just eant to make sure my diet is right so that way in two months or so im lean and cut rather skinny with a runners body lol
looks like Scott missed Leg day. Thanks for the vid btw
His legs are fine. 16 inch calves in particular are above average.
Tristan Ferguson his calf’s are that size because it’s naturally that way but he clearly skips leg day theres no excuse for those 22 in thighs.
@@joshuajurado6235 I think he probably just doesn't have much fat in his thighs, you can see he does have visible muscle there. I have a similar build to him, 22.25" thighs and you can't even pinch enough there to get a reading with calipers.
Very helpfull Scott!!
happy to help!
Thank you so much 👍

interesting to see what my measurements are once I reach about 165lbs
Scott I have an out of topic question. How did you learn to hand stand on the wall?
Just takes practice. Start by doing them with your feet on a bench and try to lift them higher and higher until you can go against the wall
Forearm should be measured with STRAIGHT arm, fist tight and twisted back, but the elbow MUST be straight!
No forearms meaaure in goose position flexed.
great video!
Thanks!
I don't know why but I think my shoulder is kinda big. what's the size if your shoulders?
That's 34inch because of muscle mass, which represents strong core right? I think there's nothing to be ashamed of a little bigger waist.
Yes for sure. The vast majority (in the US and UK anyway) would not consider him in any way fat.
hiw do you train your neck? does that come with something like shoulders, back, traps?
You hit it directly with neck curls and other variations. Also wrestling bridges once u get more advanced
Trap shrugs
Thank you so much! After dropping 100 pounds in a little over a year, and finding most clothing is cut real box like this will help, but more importantly, as I begin to add muscle I can accurately track my gains!

Forearms are pretty easy to do tho
When should you measure waist size? In the morning, before breakfast, my waist size is about 1 inch smaller compared to an afternoon or evening measurement.
MrBillThunder when u haven’t crapped in 3 or more days. Keep your measurements very modest so if u become a fat fuck and measure again, u won’t be too disappointed
You guys look bigger and more aesthetic than me but yet my measurements are pretty close lol I'm gonna get there eventually.
Exactly the same here haha. My measurements are almost exactly the same as this guy, yet I look nowhere near as big. It's odd.
I have 14 Inch biceps, 43 inch chest, 32 waist, 22 thighs and I look skinny AF... But he looks good, why is that?
Because you are skinny?...
Height, muscle distribution, fat distribution, width of the Bones etc
my biceps are pretty much exactly the same measurements but i can see my left is slightly lacking in the inner bicep. any exercises you'd recommend that are the best for targeting the inner bicep using dumbbells?
Hammer curls
Morning i measured lower than afternoon which time is best Scott ?

@@arugorai3451 Thank you, God bless you
@@LUKERs1196 you have a pretty decent chest size for your bw 👍
What's his height & weight though, just for reference?
that guy is 6 3 to 6 4. he looks like a soldier. Doesnt look massive but fit enough to hump a 90 lb ruck make his 70 pushups and 18 pull ups.
at 5 7 i have these exact measurements but looks more fit.
Darryl Weaver he has bigger shoulder to waist ratio maybe
Hump?... why would you be humping it

Do you have any tips on how to squirt? I know how to squat but squirt is hard
I really needed this overview. Thank you.
this is quite homoerotic.
And i loved it ;)
Everything about bodybuilding is homoerotic
So flex everything when taking measurements? I read some say flex some say don’t.

Guys what a broad shoulder mine is like 125cms with no Side delt how can i know if my shoulder width is big
Which is 49inches
I measured my shoulders the way he described in the video and mine are 51 and i don't work out, is that wide? I'm about 15-17% bodyfat and my waist is 33 inches.
Depends on height
@@Nicky_LarSwana I'm 5ft10
@@Nicky_LarSwana and I'm 52, I measured it wrong 2 months ago.
@@Jay-son. sorry bro for the late answer, i didn't see.
Yes your measurements are pretty good, pretty sure you have a wide back. I'm myself 6ft and have 54" shoulders (21" wide), 34" waist at 15/16% (4 pack visible when flexed and all big muscle portions visible, biceps vein when very well pumped) and people use to notice it.
@@Nicky_LarSwana I replied hella late but thanks for the response lol.
Ankles and wrist size? damn i hate my ankles, they're so thin lol, im 5'7 but my ankles are so thin like under 9inch, is there anyway to make them bigger?
how much does he weigh and how tall is he?
How often should we do the measuring ?
3 months... 👍
Like once a year after you have trained over 2 years
Is that the right way to measure neck because
When i measure with straight head its: 42 cm 16.5 inch when do the same you do in the video it turn to 44cm 17.4 inch
Although I'm not on your website ( I can't afford anything outside of groceries at the moment) would you be interested in seeing transformations?
Shouldn't he flex the calf while measuring??
My thighs are 24" and my chest is 37" is that good?
Depends how tall you are

you're 6ft and 150lbs with 15.5 bicep? that's cap lol
@@polypom8453 Im 5'10 152 and my biceps are 14 inch and Im lean af too
@@99drums54 yeah but youre 5'10. a person 6ft tall weighting only 150lbs is not gonna have 15.5 inch biceps lol, there's simply no way. I know because im 6ft tall, im 177lbs and i know for a fact if i was 150lbs i would be skin and bones lol, let alone have anything near 15.5inch biceps. even if i was bulked 200lbs and went down to 150lbs i wouldnt have 15.5inch arms. even with roids it would be hard af to have 15.5inch arms only 150lbs at 6ft tall.
You have good stats tho, keep bulking slow and you can probably maintain that lean look while you gain muscle and mass :) im talking barely 2lbs a month cuz 2lbs every month is 24lbs a year
@@polypom8453 yeah I was Tryna make a point that even though I'm shorter and weigh the same my biceps are way smaller still so yeah 15.5 is cap
@@99drums54 ah I see, idd. sure training for many years plays a role aswell, i have bigger arms now than i had 7years ago at the same weight etc but yeah 15.5 at 150lbs 6ft is too big xd
i have 15inches cold flex at 177lbs but im ecto with only 6.3inch wrist so its hard af for me to get bigger arms ;( since there is a correlation with wrist/ankle size and overall arm size, i guess i should be happy to be 6ft atleast rofl. tho 5'9-5'10 is better for muscle size. if you have a big wrist, lets say 8 inch, your arm is automatically bigger than the guy with 6inch wrist, i fking hate my wrists XD
What's Scott's weight and height?
Scott did u have your measurements cold or after pumped?
I do mine cold but flexed
What's his height?
