Wrist 7.2" my waist should be about 33" im off by an inch. im 34" on a good day.
Chest however is 47 almost 48" Im high waisted so that sucks. Hips are 38" i guess thats OK. thighs 23". biceps 14" Shoulders 54". I wear a 42-44" shoulder T shirt but they are tight in the shoulders and chest baggy everywhere else. they eventually stretch to my form though. I guss im not to bad considering i use have these measurements.

waist 44" and that was a tight fit. really probably a 46" i weighed 275 lbs and im only 5'9"
now i weigh about 188 lbs.
