Perfect Figure

完美身材

理想的体形取决于胸部、腰部、臀部等的比例以及各自的高度。如果在身体的中心画一条直线,我们可以分别以胸部和臀部为顶点造出两个三角形。如果中心线两侧的三角形的前后和上下的比例都均等,且有交叉点正好位于腰部,则可称为理想的体形。乳峰应位于从头顶起往下2个头部长度的位置,即肩头与肘部之间的正中央的地方。腰部应位于手臂微微弯曲时肘部附近的位置。臀部的理想位置是身高的整二分之一的高度。

Realize BMI and Perfect Figure

认识BMI指数和完美身材

1BMI指数

What is the perfect figure? It can honestly be said this is a matter of opinion, but what is the opinion of the average person? Recently a survey completed by the University London and Newcastle University。 Both men and women were shown pictures of various women with a variety of figure types and sizes。 The participants were asked to judge the figures of each woman and the results were surprising to many, and did not fit with what most would consider traditional thought。

For many years, perhaps decades, the perfect figure has been considered to be 36’ chest, 26’ waist, and 36’ hips。 Very well proportioned, a tad larger in the chest, and one would guess firmer in all areas。 The new study found the actual shapes were not as important as had been expected。 What they did learn was that certain body sizes were found to be more attractive。 Participants did not care for figures that were too thin, or too large。 Experts believe this relates to the perception of good health。 We consider someone who is overweight to be unhealthy, and apparently we make the same association with someone who is too thin。 So much for the old saying you can never be too skinny。

The researchers found that actual body measurements were not as important as the total BMI (Body Mass Index)。 You can calculate your own BMI by taking your weight, multiple it by 703, then divide by your height, in inches。 Take that number and divide it by your height once again and you will have your BMI。 The study found that anyone with a BMI below 18 was considered too thin。 Anything over a BMI of 25 was considered overweight。 A BMI of 30 or more was considered obese。 But what was the perfect BMI, according to the survey?

The perfect BMI, according to several thousand survey participants was 20。85。 It was found that a wide range of figures were though of as attractive, but each of them had one thing in common, a BMI of approximately 20。85。 The researchers gave an example of a well known celebrity who has that exact BMI for comparison。 The star with the perfect BMI, was Kate Winslete coming in with a perfect score of 20。85。

BMI指数(身体质量指数,简称体质指数,又称体重指数,英文为Body Mass Index,简称BMI),是用体重公斤数除以身高米数平方得出的数字,是目前国际上常用的衡量人体胖瘦程度以及是否健康的一个标准,主要用于统计用途。当我们需要比较及分析一个人的体重对于不同高度的人所带来的健康影响时,BMI值是一个中立而可靠的指标。由于存在误差,所以BMI只能作为评估个人体重和健康状况的多项标准之一。
