What is the difference between hip and waist?

First of all, how to calculate the hip circumference? Wrap the tape measure horizontally around the 0.5 to 1 cm above the navel. For fat people, measure the hip circumference horizontally around the thickest part of the waist. Waist horizontal circumference through the umbilicus (om).

Below is the waist size chart:

1 foot = 10 inches = 0.33 meters = 33.33 centimeters

Size 26 - Hips 1 foot 9 inches

Size 27 - Hips 2 feet 0 inches (also available in 1 foot 9 inches) Waist 2 feet 7 inches

Size 28 - Hips 2 feet 1 inch Waist 2 feet 8 inches

No. 29 - Hips 2 feet 2 inches Waist 2 feet 9 inches

Size 30 - Hips 2 feet 3 inches Waist 3 feet

No. 31------Hip 2 feet 4 inches Waist 3 feet 1

Size 32 - Hips 2 feet 5 inches Waist 3 feet 2 inches

Size 33 - Hips 2 feet 6 inches Waist 3 feet 3 inches

Size 34 - Hips 2 feet 7 inches Waist 3 feet 4 inches

Size 36 - Hips 2 feet 8 inches Waist 3 feet 5-6 inches

Note: The above waist size table is only a relative data. In fact, different versions of the size, the corresponding hip and waist are different. For accurate consideration, it is best for everyone to measure their own hip and waist across the jeans to buy the corresponding jeans. We have marked the waist and hip circumference specifications in the product introduction of each pair of jeans (the data is measured in centimeters and is measured accurately)

What is the standard difference between waist and hip circumference?

Waist circumference: the main parameter for men is 890.317mm, the main parameter for women is 895.604mm, and the difference between men and women is -5.287mm; Waist circumference index value: the main parameter for men is 52.04, the main parameter for women is 56.37, and the difference between men and women is -4.32.

For hip circumference, the normal range is 2-13 (cm) for height (cm), ±5%. The actual hip circumference difference depends on the actual height.

Waist circumference reflects the growth and development of hip bones and muscles. When measuring, stand with your legs together, your arms relaxed naturally, and place the tape measure horizontally between the ischial tuberosity in front and the most protruding part of the gluteus maximus behind.

Hip circumference (WC) refers to the horizontal circumference of the waist through the umbilicus (om), which is a comprehensive indicator of total body fat content and body fat distribution. The measurement method recommended by the World Health Organization is: the subject stands with his feet 25 to 30 cm apart and weight evenly distributed.

Hips

Hip circumference: The average for Asian men is 73.35cm, and the average for Asian women is 65.79cm; the average for European and American men is 83.99cm, and the average for European and American women is 72.55cm.

Height-to-hip index = (hip/height) periodontal 100: The average for Asian men is 42.79, and the average for Asian women is 41.34; the average for European and American men is 47.84, and the average for European and American women is 44.53.

It is not difficult to see that the average hip circumference of men is significantly higher than that of women, and the average periodontal 100 value (hip circumference/height) of men is higher than that of women. In other words, women have smaller waists.

waistline

Waist circumference: The average for Asian men is 88.82cm, and the average for Asian women is 91.66cm; the average for European and American men is 98.37cm, and the average for European and American women is 96.69cm.

It is not difficult to see that the waist circumference mean values ​​are similar for both sexes, but the (waist circumference/height) mean value of periodontal 100 for women is significantly higher than that for men. In other words, women have relatively larger buttocks.

Waist-to-hip ratio

Waist-to-hip ratio = hip circumference/waist circumference: the average for Asian men is 0.81, and the average for Asian women is 0.73; the average for European and American men is 0.85, and the average for European and American women is 0.75.

It is not difficult to see that the average waist-to-hip ratio of men is significantly higher than that of women, and there is a significant difference in waist-to-hip ratio between the two sexes.
