There is quite a lot of footage of people performing sprints or running after LL. Although it's always great that people share their experiences with the surgery I really wish that there was one which compared their running with how it looked before the surgery. I feel as if this allows us to assess much better how the surgery actually impacted their overall athleticism. F.ex in most of the running videos i have seen online, even in those with patients that are 5+ years post op, the comments are filled with remarks that the person runs slowly and/or moves in a wonky manner. I guarantee that if there was a before footage a lot of the negative comments and stigma would clear up as we would be able to see wether the slowness/wokyness actually came from the surgery or if its due to the persons natural athleticism.

So please if you have before and after footage on you or someone else running or sprinting after LL please attach it below. I wont share or spread any of it, it is simply for personal inquiry.

Thats because literally no one can run properly after having the surgery, no matter how long recovery. The reason the running vids you see online are slow is because having limb lengthening permanently ruins your running and athleticism. The reason people dont post before videos is because they dont want to show you how much worse their running is because of shame or whatever. If you need to run or want to keep your athleticness, dont have the surgery ever.

That's not true. Cyborg4life has posted multiple videos of LL patients. Hes posted videos of himself too. You don't know what you're talking about.

YOU have no idea what ur talking about. He has only shown him running and he did not get it for height, he got it to fix uneven legs. There is still LITERALLY ZERO footage of a person running equally as well before and after getting limb lengthening for height. Considering the fact that athletics is a major concern with the surgery and that there i zero footage of someone running equally well before and after, my point stands.

Like you would think at least one person has showed proper and well documented videos of a full recovery, but no.

This just proves how little you know about limb lengthening. The process for a discrepancy patient and cosmetic patient is the same; Taking otherwise healthy, normal bone, and lengthening it. Of course a discrepancy patient will only do a single leg, but the procedure itself is identical.  Discrepancy patients are not trauma or deformity patients, at least typically. And Cyborg4Life was a typical discrepancy patient. No deformity of the bone itself.

LLInspector, listen and learn before you speak and embarrass yourself. There have been multiple LL patients showing their recovery progress. See the below for an example:



If you are a professional athlete, you should probably wait until after because your PPP, Peak Performance Potential, may be lowered. But don't move the goalposts. You said "literally no one can run properly after having the surgery, no matter how long recovery". That's a blatant lie

While I agree with you, I must say every (serious) doctor are pretty clear about how you will end up not as athletic as you were. Thats a fact. You surely can a full recovery but you will not never ever been the same regarding your Athletic capabilities.

Tbh, Person in video don't look like have gone under limb lengthened due to having right wingspan and appropriate torso structure even after 11.5cm lengthened and we all know how badly do our ratio's get after lengthening this much.

B-b-but muh athletics!

Playing sports well is absolutely nothing compared to the life benefits of extra height. You're not going to be a professional sportsplayer earning millions and having worldwide adoration, get real. Why is it 90% of manlets here are obsessed about muh sports while in real life most of them don't play at all?
