How to measure a gymnast

To measure the chest correctly, place the measuring tape around the fullest part of the chest.

1. The gymnast should stand relaxed with arms at her sides.
2. Pass the tape around the back and bring it forward, encircling the chest at its fullest point.
3. Ensure the tape is straight and parallel to the floor, neither too high nor too low.
4. The tape should be snug but not tight, allowing for normal breathing.
5. Record the measurement in centimeters.

We need the distance from the top of the head to the floor, with the gymnast completely upright.

1. Place the gymnast standing, barefoot.
2. She must remain straight, with feet together, legs straight, and looking forward.
3. Make sure the back is upright and the head is aligned with the body, without tilting forward or backward.
4. Utilize a wall as a reference: The gymnast should lean gently against the wall with heels, back, and head straight.
