Hip Circumference Measurement 

Not Affiliated with CSEP - PATH
This video demonstrates how to mark and measure your client's hip circumference. It is done by measuring the greatest part of their gluteal protuberance, or buttocks. This is not to be confused with the waist circumference measurement which involves a different technique.
These CSEP guidelines are under constant revision - If you notice any mistakes or out-of-date information, please let me know in the comments so I can update the video accordingly.
