Fat Burning Express has invested a lot of resources in finding out exactly what your ideal weight should be. The Hamwi method has been used extensively by physiologists in calculating a person’s ideal body weight. Just enter in your height to find out exactly how much weight you can lose with Fat Burning Express (although you can lose weight which will bring you lower than your ideal weight, we believe that being overly skinny is not only unnecessary but unhealthy!)

How to Approximate Your Frame Size

  1. Bend your forearm up to a 90 degree angle. Your arm should be parallel to your body.
  2. Keep your fingers straight and turn the inside of your wrist towards the body.
  3. Using your other hand, place your thumb and index finger on the two prominent bones (on either side) of the elbow.
  4. Measure the distance between the bones with a tape measure or calipers.
  5. Compare with the tables listing elbow measurements for medium-framed men or women.
  6. Measurements lower than those listed for a medium frame indicate a small frame. Higher measurements indicate a large frame.

Quick Reference to Find Your Frame Size.

Keep in mind that this is a far less accurate measurement method.

To calculate your frame type place your thumb and index finger around your wrist. If your finger overlaps the thumb, your frame is a "Small Frame". If they touch, your frame is a "Medium Frame". If they do not touch, your frame is a "Large Frame".

We have created a table of approximate values to find your ideal weight, feel free to check this table as an additional source of information in checking your ideal weight. However, we do recommend the Hamwi method for the most accurate results.
