Hi guys
I was just wondering if people can tell me how leg lengthening has affected their ability to squat.
Im just wondering as in the 2 months i have been here already my thighs have lost a lot of size and are no longer 27.5".
I was wondering if you guys were able to return to squatting to get your leg muscle back okay?
Im aiming for 6-6.5cms in my tibias
Thanks guys
I was squatting 550 for 5-6 reps onnthe safety bar atg in April this year before i decided to undergo this op. i deliberately lost 23kgs by only eating twice a day and doing sprints for the 4 months before i came here
My calfs have dwindled away to nothing they were 17.2/3" before i came here i hope i get them back as well.
Have either of you tried hip belt squatting for your thighs?

Does anyone know if squatting/deadlifting heavy (400lbs+) would ever be possible after leg lengthening 6cm-7cm?
Deadlifting shouldnt be a problem imo. Most people who deadlift in the gym dont do it correctly from what i have seen
The main problem you may encounter is that your arms are now shorter in relation to your legs than before so you will need to bend over more increasin the initial strain. You could combat this by lifting from inside a rack or by placing the plates on something each side that is equal to what you lengthened. So if you lengthen 2-3" you will need to raise the bar up 2-3" to compensate. Place a 3" block below each side
