Considering 4 cm femur, what to expect?

Edit Post

Yeah it does ! not to mention if u gain some (lean) mass, it would hardly be noticed that your proportions post LL are out of place.

You mean because the built up muscle mass, will spread on the legs?

Well, that too, but whats more important is that when you become taller (with the longer legs), the muscle mass (in your chess, arms, and back) would make your upper body look bigger and people usually associate taller people with bigger, well built upper body. If you have smaller upper body, the longer legs might be more visible and noticeable.

Totally get it. Thanks! I think one has to balance the stretching and muscle gaining part.

I pushed 460kg before LL. Now I'm still far from that great shape I was before but can push 300kg in the inclined leg press machine.

I feel like I can go up to 400 too but I'm just not as motivated as before.
In general, life was better before LL. But the boost the new height gives you is enormous. Wouldn't want to trade back.

I am sorry to hear about that, Sweden. Do you think you would have the same problems now, if you had lenghtened your femurs?

What kind of boost?

What kind of complications ? If you can push 300 kg, you basically are fully recovered with no pain ?

I think he refers to his hold athletism, as far as I know he used to do sports or some martial arts on a professional (or at least very competetive and high) level. I honestly don´t think that he can still do that on a similar level after LL, but Sweden could obviously better explain this by himself.

As I said in another trade, one can hardly expect to maintain the similar level after having his legs broken, regardless whether there will be a lengthening or no, once the leges have been broken, its not the same anymore.
