9+ Body Chart Templates – Word, PDF
When assessing the physical features of a person, there are many factors to consider, including measurements with the use of a measuring tape or a weighing scale. With these measurements, we can compute the Body Mass Index (BMI) to determine whether a person’s body mass is within the recommended range, or if they are over- or underweight.
A tool is used to write down the measurements taken for these tests, and this tool is referred to as a Measurement Chart, commonly known as a body chart. With the information written on the body chart, we can also keep track of any changes in a person’s physical attributes.

Information Necessary in a Body Chart

- Body Measurement – The chest, waist, hip, shoulders, arms, legs, and feet are measured with the use of a measuring tape, using inches or centimeters.
- Body Temperature – This can be measured with the use of a thermometer. The units of measurement for body temperature are Degrees Celsius and Degrees Fahrenheit.

The body chart is used:
