    WAIST CIRCUMFERENCE RELATED TO HEALTH RISK

    Source: ACSM’s Health & Fitness Journal

    Summary:

  • Abdominal visceral fat is considered to be an important indicator of not only heart disease risk, but also health care costs incurred by the individual
  • Waist circumference (WC) is a better indication of abdominal obesity than the more common waist-to-hip ratio
  • NCEP guidelines target WC of over 102 cm (40 in.) for men and 88 cm (35 in.) for women as abdominal obesity

    Comment:
    Measure your waist to see if you should get serious about diet and exercise
