Title: Opinion on height and proportion 8 cm Femurs
Post by: GlowUp on August 04, 2019, 06:03:37 AM
First pic is current state. Second pic is a mock up with femur lengthening. Would appreciate feedback. How is my tibia / femur ratio pre-mock up? Post mock up?

Thanks in advance.

I think it is too long compared to your torso.

Here is a better version. Thanks in advance.

#1 is current state: natural height and proportions. Current height is 5'9 or 175 cm.
#2 is mock up of about 8 cm femur lengthening

Hi there,
You look fine. So many people here focus on proportions but I never concerned myself with this. There are so many people in the world with all sorts of proportions and unless you look freakishly different from others, no one will even notice or care. I think you shouldn't rely heavily on anyones opinion here. This is your body and only you will know what feels right to you. Start your journey and you will know what's best as you go along. Good luck.

It looks too much lengthening compared to your upper body (length and width). Also your arms are quite short, with relaxed hands they don't reach a third down of your thighs

Really whit 175 cm do you want a LL surgery? My measurement is of 160 cm, if I would have your height don't would get the risk of a LL surgery Pd: sorry for my English

it makes ur tibias look short and femurs look like giant (dinosaur effect). 8cm wouldnt look good on ur femurs considering u already have long legs. Try for tibias because atleast with tibias your arms wont look short.
