How accurate are those bmi machines at gyms that do height? weight body fat ect for height. I seem to measure taller standing with my back to stadiometerr than front on, in bmi machine by a few cms ?
Hey guys, I got a question if I measure myself by my own with both arms up lifting because I hold a book on top of my head am I measure myself shorter then having the arms completely down ?
Why the heck do we need to put our legs agaisnt the bar or even shoulder and head. like who is standing like that in real life? It could be lose 1 centimeter with that posture. How is that a real height?
It also depends on when you measured your height. We are generally taller in the morning and by the end of the day, we tend to be shorter because of the pressure on the spine the full day in standing and sitting erect. There is usually a variation of over half an inch (1.5 to 2 cm) over the day.
