About Guichet's theory

Edit Post

Ok, so you guys know how Guichet thinks that, basically, strong muscles and excessive excercise are better for LL. However, if I were to give my best estimate I would ponder that that would be even worst for LL, considering that strong muscles can make the lengthening harder since muscles are stubborn and can be rigid to the lengthening itself.  In my opinion, I think stretching and getting those tendons flexible are the only thing that matters pre and post LL. Would you all agree? Whats your take on it?

Thanks for the input. It seems to me stretching is the main thing a patient should focus on. @Kilo, thats interesting stuff from Dhawan. Blood flow is known to help with healing, still, I think strong leg muscles would perhaps mess with the rotational markers and pins if youre doing external LL.  Also about Parihar's thoughts on it, there is barely any research about LL in general so I wouldn't expect there to be studies on the specifics I think logically its safe to conclude maybe chicken legs are ideal for lengthening. That being said, there was this diary where the user said that the PT told him he had ballerina since his calf muscles weren't strong so I guess muscles are good for that aspect
