ah okay, out of curiosity anyway. I went to Tinder, selected that I am gay, and took 100 guys, ran into an excel spreadsheet. Average was 178+  cm. Question is, do guys inflate their height on Tinder?

Multiple studies have shown men average a 5cm lie about height with online dating...

something cool I realised anyway.
when you are taller, guys will tend (more so than before) to avoid you unless you speak to them and initiate the conversation (the shorter ones) - except those who are secure with their own height.
Especially Asian guys who are much shorter - strangers will sometimes not even acknowledge your presence (as if you are invisible) unless you say Hi.

anyway as a law and psychology graduate, I think there is confirmation bias and availability heuristic error which makes us think we are shorter than we actually are. maybe that is why I feel short at six feet. probably it is all in my mind.

It is the effects of practice, skill improvement and discipline. I can even squat now with my feet touching the ground though unsteady in balance.

@Op
You did 8cm´s on the tibias and you are seriously thinking that you´ll get back anywhere close to your pre-op shape?

Everything that I´ve read so far suggested that LL has a strong negative effect on your perfomance in sports, that´s what every experienced Dr. will tell you as well. A chinese LL Dr. tested the shape of his tibia patients a couple of years after the frame removal and his results were that the ones who exeeded 5cm´s, only got back to 60-70% of what they had before the surgery.

It is just practice effects, dude?

Before, I was fat and lazy. Now I train hard. Of course, I will become more athletic. Buzz off :)
I shall stop posting in these forums lmao, such pessimistic people with low perserverance! As I said, I already perform better in sports, even though my athleticism is nowhere near before. It is a result of skill improvement and drills.

There're two types of people. Those who bounce back after a fall and those who whine and whine and don't have the willpower or discipline to take it to the next level :) I think you sound like the latter. There are patients who recover and jog after a stroke where docs said they can't make it. Are you a doctor to make such statements? if not, I think I better not trust your non-medical and non-specialist predictions. My operating surgeon and my surgeon in Australi has told me I should recover most of my athleticism in terms of sport. One doctor told me I should recover to the same level recreationally but competitively I might suffer a little.

The difference between pro athletes and keyboard warriors like yourself who don't have a lean/fit body is discipline, and hundreds of hours and thousands of hours of hard work and practice.

One month after my frame removed, I was walking well, climbing steps. Two months after, I was doing lay-ups.
Three months later, I was doing three-pointers. I climbed up a mountain, and it was only 30 minutes before I had to pause awhile becuase of calf soreness, and continue.
One year later, I will compete competitively. Cheers mate :) continue being a couch potato as most people in Western countries are :P

Oh this is my last post, I have given my Australian phone number to those who are worthy of contact. Cheers pessismistic rubbish =D

To the admins, please delete my account, I have already randomised my password so I can't login to see all this negative rubbish haha.

Came for advice on my next procedure, NOT negative rubbish like this overweight man is giving. :) I am doing well athletically, and I will do better. Full of rubbish. After doing yoga, I have regained 50% of my flexibility and balance. I can do many poses which require balance on one single leg which I could never do before.

before: no coaching, train once  a week.
After: coaching, train everyday for many hours.
How can you not improve in your sport? Jesus Christ.. you are naïve. I am catching 3 times more rebounds than when I was 8 cm shorter.

Chill dude, we got your point.

However, you can't say that LL improved your sports ability just yet. From what I see, practicing, coaching and traning improved your sports ability. However, I do believe that in a near future your new height will be an advantage in the mentioned sport. Just take your time to "fully" recover.

There is one thing on this forum which is kinda annoying.

 Two guys here on the forum who came to persuade us not to do LL and who themselves suffer from either severe BDD (as one of them claimed) and another one just a wierdo.

This talk about athletisim is absolute rubbish.... "But hey, could you squat 100kgs afterwards? Because if not, than it's not worth it".. Sorry, but I rarely see anyone in the gym squat 100kg, 50kg or squat at all. Athletisism is not based on your squat performance...
 "But what about running and joggin?" I personally dont jog and I know too many people who dont jog.

Suddenly everyone on planet earth are elite pro athletes and if you are not atleast olympic level runner or novice power lifter squatter, it seems that people here decide that this surgery is not worth it.
 Most of people around the western world are either overweight couch potatoes or just skinny guys. There is a reason of the obesity epidemic in the western world ya know...
So please.. Stop with this hysterical almost delirium like obsession with athleticism... If he is happy with his athleticism, who the fk are any of you guys to judge? Just like any other dude who have done this surgery here... "First let's see you post a squat video..."... Why? He can live a happy life without squatting a single kg.

Nobody is judging his satisfaction with current athleticism but if his LL surgery actually helped him in sports.

He can live a happy life without squatting a single kg.
Yes after LL you still can enjoy sports and other activities.

And yes its cool aussie that surgery gave you motivation to work out and improve your own health and overall take care of yourself but you said that you were lazy before the surgery so maybe you just didn't know your performance pre-LL.

Several points to be made categorically:
1. I doubt that LL will improve my performance if I trained super hard before and after LL.
2. My improvements are because I train much harder now to regain my athletic capabilities. It is mostly because of skill improvement - more accuracy, faster reaction, better footwork - even though my athlecism suffered, I play better.

You cant stop bigots on this forum like how you cant stop Pauline hanson. It is ok, I just wanted to update that hey, I did LL and hey, I have better sports performance than before, I can go up and down stairs quickly with heavy luggages, etc, but my only problems are top sprint speed forwards (lateral movements are great), endurance, flexibility and balance, and of course the power of my jumps.

I am logging out now, all the best. I will probably check up again on another account before I book my ticket to Serbia or Moscow for my next operation. I have given some members my Aust. phone number (I don't have WhatsApp).

Let me explain the rebound point - I think it is because of drills and also because I start off 8 cm higher, and still jump to the same height as before. So, I reach the top faster, if that makes sense.

Cheers.

Ur right about the couch potatos point. Even though I am just 6', I don't feel as insecure as before. At 6' I can easily pwn many westerners in a sport, just because I have a better physique (even though I am shorter). I don't know, but those who are 6'+ on the streets are typically obese/fat/un-athletic/skinny... Such a waste of a good height.

Words can have a negative impact on people. Just google "psychology attitude sports performance"... even the mere mention of negativity impacts you, as much as you try to ignore it. it impacts below the level of consciousness...... implicitly. and that is why I am quitting this forum.

These words will be a hella lot worse for those who don't even believe in themselves. I believe in myself, and so I won't be affected by all this trash (as much).

These couch potatoes making the comments do not stand to lose anything - they are just casually making those comments out of boredom or their free time... in contrast, those who have done LL or are doing LL have a lot to lose psychologicaly from such comments unless they know that these comments are made by lay-persons with no specialist or even medical knowledge.

@op
I never wanted to offend you, what you are saying just heavily contraticts with everything I know about this procedure. Most people need a lot longer to get back to perform sports again after the frame removal. Just look at RGKEY or Sweden.

I have to say that you remind me of a user who got banned over a year ago. Perhaps a couple of people will remember "Itsmylife". He did 8cm´s on his tibias and also said that he´ll performe better in sports post-op (especially basketball) due to the polymetric training he wanted to do after the frame removal. He even had a similar style of writing if I remember correctly, he also used clone acounts after his main account was banned by the admins. The time frame would fit as well, because he had his operation more than two years ago.
Perhaps this is just a random coincidence though. Anyways I didn´t want to offend you with what I wrote and If I did I apologize.

but that's probably cause I train like anything from 3 to 8 hours a day, 3 times a week... endurance and balance really suffered though. and it is kinda uncomfortable to stay in half squat position as is common in basketball. gotta get used to it. I am only 4 months after frame removal, so I don't know. I started doing plyometrics yesterday.

mostly insecurity........ =/
but.. I do not feel as insecure now that I reached 6 feet. Many guys may be taller than me,but they cannot defeat me in any way as they are fatter, and less healthy or strong as me.

Hey Aussieboy! How are your dribbling skills? From what I can see, you're a pro at dribbling s**t!! You're a weak, weak man to still feel inadequate at 6 feet.. You would have to be the most self absorbed, superficial person I have seen on this forum.... And this forum attracts the cream of the crop.

You said going to leave and yet you keep posting..

I completely agree with this

You see countless guys who are 6'+ who clearly just do not bother whatsoever to take care of themselves athletically or diet wise. They walk around basically coasting through life because of their height with their bellies hanging over their trousers. Idiots always say to shorter guys 'you are compensating' no its called working out and improving your physique! Guess what id train with weights if i was 6-2 as id look even better!


Other ridiculous statements you hear from tall guys 'youre stronger as i have to lift the weight further' no im stronger because im physically stronger than you and i eatb5-8 meals a day! You eat like a cat walk model and you are just genetically weak! Sorry your parents and aunts and uncles have always told you 'youre a big strong boy' but the reality is youre not strong youve just began to believe your own hype too much and your ego cant handle reality. A quick look at the heights of strongman competitors will tell you that this statement is utter bull£hit as well.

Athletic abilitys are subjective id hazard a guess most guys on here are not that athletically active anyway so what difference will it make to your quality of life!

Has anyone here ever heard of a woman rejecting a guy on the basis of not being able to squat 250kgs? Curl huge weights or deadlift large amounts? Nope never is the answer! 'Oh id date that guy but he doesnt have 19" upper arms' said no woman ever!

@OP

Man you're a sad man with some bull shiiitteee stories. I doubt you're really in top physical form after 8 CM on Tibia. And you possibly going on and doing more on the femurs, won't help and defining won't make you look normal...

You're attributing too much to height as a key factor in success. Sure it can be huge when it comes to dating, but no one is "coasting through life" because they are solely 6+ and over. Do you honestly think people find coach potato, fatty, 6ft + guys with no ambition to be attractive? They might have it slightly easier, but in today's society many other factors combine can easily outweigh height. Secondly..

See, getting physically fit and feeling the best isn't about comparing yourself to others or for the sole purpose of wanting chickas. It should just be about you being at your best physical form and being healthy. Stop comparing yourself man; I know it's hard but you're over thinking things here..
