i am not anti-CLL. but its not for everyone. i think if u are not happy before LL it doesnt make sense to do LL.

i think 2 inch is more safe but its up to u. i dont disagree with ur argument either.

most of all running will feel very weird. gym workouts remain mostly ok.


Very true I think it's important for everyone not to get caught up in the numbers game too much and always take your proportions into account. I think it's more important to consider what height range you fall into.

Many here would obviously consider 5 8' to be better than 5 7',but in reality, almost no one will notice the difference.

So people, don't ruin your legs to reach your idea of a 'perfect ' height.

But you are correct CLL won't solve all your problems at all, people either overestimate or underestimate the importance of height. Regardless being closer to average height is always preferable. Being tall isn't necessary ,but it's a nice privilege.

I disagree. Height is a major aspect of your social status for people, subconsciously or otherwise. There's a reason why there's a disproportionate percentage of men over 6 feet who are CEOs and the percentage of 6 foot men. Many physical features could make or break you, and height is no exception.

Yeah I get that but is the height self reported or not?
Anyway I'm tryna dispell this dumb narrative that you need to be tall or else. There's nothing wrong with being average height.

Like I said being tall is a privilege.

I have the mindset that when it comes to your physical appearance and personality, do everything you can for both to be the best it can and let people decide how much they like it.

I'm also trying my best to complete information from this site, but it's super difficult to navigate through, I'm not used to this.



Max for femurs is 8cm, max for tibs is 5/6cm

I don’t care what you’ve read or who said. Don’t go higher, that is the max safe limit
Accept it

Max for tibia is 7cm according to  doctors who specialize in this field and say there would be consequences if you exceeded that. It's some of these businesses who offer heigher and claim there won't be a problem. But 7 is fine.

Yeah 7cm seems to be in the conservative side ,considering almost everyone who does stryde exceeds that.
But hey I'm not a doctor.

It's all how your body responds however, I plan on getting 8cm with stryde however if I my body can't handle that I'll settle for 7.5cm.

Good choice. It's good to be as informed as much as possible as opposed to backing out entirely or going for a really small number and wasting money.

No it’s not, and you’re an idiot for saying that
If paley and rozbruch and donghoon, the best doctors, will refuse to go more than 5-6cm what makes you qualified to say that?
