Quote from: Beardedguy on February 21, 2015, 11:17:46 PMYeah, I saw that fight. Hunt beated that 6'11 guy and that was thanks to his 6'2 wignspan.

And also, about Brad Pitt at 180cm, would he be considered short in Netherlands?


I doubt his wingspan had too much todo with it, figuring the 6'11 guy probably had a 6'11 wingspan (roughly).

Eh no. Those abnormally tall men usually have long wingspans, could easily be a wingspan of above7'1" depending on the specific man.

I think ectomorphs have the biggest disadvantage when it comes to LL because their bone structure in general is gracile, meaning smaller hands, wrists, and long bones. If you already look small-boned for your height you're going to look just plain tiny with lengthened legs. Endomorphs are often wide and height is exactly what they need to look good. RGKEY is a good example of an endomorph shedding the pounds to suddenly reveal some big wide shoulders and solid bones. Shame about the arm length though.

You are wrong. Ectos are quite advantaged. They can train up muscle at the right places (ie, avoid the arms, to make arms look longer). eg, train it at the calves/thighs. This will give them a very tall-looking frame than their height. So they may be 178 but look 180.

Ectos are also fantastic Bodybuilders and insane deadlifters. Look up Lamar Gant.
