Title: My body and possible proportions [history incluided]
Post by: zlRadamanthys on April 25, 2019, 09:15:16 PM
Hello forum partners, then I will post some pictures to comment on my proportions, (I have not done the model because I do not know how to do it, but in the next months I will do an X-ray to see what is more convenient) .

Statistics:

-Height after the bed: 171 cm
-Height during the afternoon: 170 cm
-Height at night at its lowest point 168.5 to 169 cm
-Winspang: 178 cm
-Inseam: 80 cm
-Set height: 85 cm

Father: 171 cm
Mother: 166 cm
Sister: 162 cm

I had a late development, I was always one of the lowest of the class, at 14 or 15 I gave a great stretch that took me to 167 cm, (I think it should have been more if I had not abused drugs and I would have been fed better) I always played soccer and it was quite sunny, I read a study that people with late development have to have short torso, which I think is my case because my mother had her menstruation at 16 years old. At that time I was not worried about the height and continued to drug until I was 20 years old, now I am 21 years old and I no longer used drugs, I was also taking HGH, which increased my size from 176cm to 178cm.

The following image shows my height at its minimum point in front of the mirror, I think my legs are a bit long for my torso, I do not know what they think: https://imgur.com/a/58hnIUj
I have small hands and feet, I think it's because of my ectomorphic body type, I only fit like 8 US, anyway.

This other image is the same but I simulate that I have a longer torso, which is how I think it should have been if I had worried about my height before, possibly it would measure + 173cm

Although I think it's not too late because the voice was still changing me a lot at the age of 19 and I'm barely growing facial hair on my mustache and beard, I've always had the appearance of a child (the hairs in the armpit came out at 17 years), I am doing yoga and feeding myself better.

I'm from South America so I would settle for 177 cm (my arms are as long as a friend of this height but shorter legs), the femurs are very expensive, if I could do warm it would be better but I need to know what is better, Since if they are warm I could only go to 6.5 cm, help me with your opinions. I thank you

Hello friend, if u texted me on whatsapp then sorry I have no option to answer coz I deleted app by mistake and now I can't recover my old number, will text u with new one. As I told u before, go for it, don't care about proportions, u have good wingspan which will cover ur new proportions. Ofc you can go for 6.5 tibias which should be maximum, I know u have long legs so I guess 6.5 tibias shouldn't be too much risky.

Cheers.

Lengthening typically more than 5cm on tibias can be risky. Since you're only a little below average for a South American male it may be best to save for femur lengthening.
If you're height neurosis is bad though just get tibia lengthening you won't achieve you're ideal height but you'll be extremely close to it and would be taller than many South American men anyway so you have options in your case.

Also you're proportions are good which means you can achieve max lengthening without looking weird after surgery.

Hope that helps
