(5) Is my body growing well?
In the body model, we look at how the shape of square
is and where the each vertex falls in. The shape of
square allows the evaluation of an individual body parts
such as upper and lower balance, and left and right
balance. Also using the range in which each vertex
belongs, we can see the muscle development in limbs.
(6) My height and weight compared to my friends.
This part is to cheek a subject’s developmental
status through a percentile graph that enlarges a
growth curve according to his/her age and gender.
Percentile is a score that shows one’s relative
position in the distribution of the group to which
he/she belongs. The 50th percentile (50%)
indicates a mean value, and if it is closer to the
50th percentile, it means one’s growth is at a rate
close to the middle. However, there is no need for
worry if one falls between the 10th percentile (10%) and the 90th percentile (90%), rather than the 50th percentile. But if
one is lower than the 10th percentile (10%) or higher than the 90th percentile (90%), careful attention is required for the
child’s growth.

Weight Control
For growing children, it is not a good idea to blindly lose weight to achieve an ideal weight. It would be advisable to
maintain ideal body components while monitoring muscle mass and the amount of body fat.
