Title: Limb lenghtening,but what about muscles?
Post by: abcd on December 29, 2013, 06:04:28 PM

I'm considering a finger and clavicle lenghtening,as stated in another topic,but my main concern is:if my clavicles are lenghtened,let's say each with 3,5 cm,so my shoulders will basically be wider,but will the muscles become longer too?Particularly the chest and the back,will they stretch to become wider,or will remain the same?What about tendons,ligaments,joints?And if the clavicles become wider,will they pull the scapula with them too?Thanks in advance guys!

I don't know about those specific muscles, but in leg lengthening all the leg muscles stretch.

Well thanks,that gives me hope!If leg muscles and tendons can stretch,than the pectorals and lombars could stretch,at least I hope so!
P.S. How are your legs after the surgery?I mean,can you run,ride a bike things like that.Can you use them at full potential,if you would like to could you go to the gym?

Yes I can run, ride a bike, and go to the gym.  I've done all those things.
