Title: What do you guys think of my proportions?
Post by: shortkid on July 05, 2014, 02:16:27 AM
I am not too happy with them to be honest. I think my legs are gonna look really long. I believe I have an inseam of 48% and will be 51% after the surgery. I am planning on 8cm on my femurs next month. What do you guys think?

Edit: I am 162cm

It's hard to tell from that perspective.

I would say shot femurs and short tibias but an okay torso...

From second picture my opinion is.
Long femurs, short tibias, average leaning to short torso
and long wingspan.

so do you think it would be a mistake to do 8cm on femurs?

If you are just doing one surgery do tibias, if you are doing both tibs and femurs
then aim for less on your femurs.

You look like you have completely normal and average proportions to me, so it doesn't really matter what you do - you'll look fine afterward no matter what.  Personally I prefer the look of long tibiae/high knees rather than long femurs/low knees, so if you're looking for peoples' opinions about what you should lengthen, I'd say tibiae.

The only thing is the max I would do on tibia is 5cm and it may come with knee problems. Femurs I can do 8cm and at least be 5'7.

That is the trade off. If overall height is what you are after go femur if you are wanting
proportion go tibia.

What everyone else says: 1 surgery, tibias. 2 surgeries, femurs first then tibias.

What the hell are you wearing?

Wear regular underwear and take a new picture.
I sincerely hope you don't wear that kind of crap on a regular basis.  ;D

hahahahaha they are boxers! I just scrunched them up to show more of my femur. I am only 5'4 so I want to do 8cm and since I can't do that on tibias I wanna do femurs. Do you think it would look really weird if I just did 8cm on femur?

Why if you are gonna do 2 surgeries would you take femurs first?
