Description:
  1. Place yourself off to one side of client's mid-section.
  2. Place measuring tape around waist (smallest girth around the abdomen), ensuring client is not wearing bulky clothes that would invalidate the reading.
  3. Hold zero end of tape in one hand, positioned below the other part of the tape, which is held in your other hand.
  4. Apply tension to the tape so that it fits snugly around the body, but does not compress the skin or body fat.
  5. Align the tape so that it runs horizontal (parallel to the floor) and not diagonal.
  6. At the end of a normal expiration, record measurement to nearest 0.5 cm.
