Knowing your wrist circumference can be helpful for a variety of reasons, whether you’re buying a new watch or bracelet, tracking your fitness progress, or even for medical purposes. In this comprehensive guide, we will walk you through the steps to accurately measure your wrist circumference.
What do you need?
Before you begin, gather the following items:
- Flexible measuring tape or a piece of string
- A pen or marker
- Optionally, a friend to assist you
Step-by-Step Guide
Follow these steps to measure your wrist circumference:
- First, ensure your wrist is relaxed and not stiff. This will give you a more accurate measurement.
- Take the flexible measuring tape or string and wrap it around your wrist at the point where you would normally wear a watch. Make sure it’s snug but not too tight.
- If you’re using a string, mark the point where it overlaps using a pen or marker.
- If you have assistance, have your friend help you measure the length of the tape or string using a ruler or a measuring tape. If you’re doing it alone, remove the tape or string and measure the marked length using a ruler.
Tips for Accurate Measurement
To ensure an accurate measurement, keep the following tips in mind:
- Measure your wrist in the middle of the day as our wrists tend to swell slightly in the morning and evening.
- Make sure the measuring tape or string is parallel to the ground for an accurate reading.
- If you’re using a string, make sure it’s not too thin or too thick—it should be similar to the width of a measuring tape for optimal accuracy.
- Measure each wrist twice to double-check the accuracy of your readings.
What to Do with your Measurement?
Once you have your wrist circumference measurement, you can use it for various purposes:
- When shopping for a watch or bracelet online, refer to the product’s sizing guide to ensure the item will fit comfortably.
- Keep track of your fitness progress by comparing your wrist circumference measurements over time.
- If you suspect you may be at risk for certain medical conditions, such as carpal tunnel syndrome, you can share your wrist circumference measurement with your healthcare provider for evaluation.
