http://s772.photobucket.com/user/melmalkie/library/ hi guys, im a 5'8 guy who wants to get taller. how much of lengthening can be possible if you look to my proportions? can i lengthen up to 5 inches to become 6'1?

good to hear that. yes the funny thing is that my sitting height is the same as my friend whose maybe 6'1/6'2. but if i stand up my legs dont look very short and his dont look very tall. it confuses me

yes im from holland. 6'1 is my dream height. so i have to lenghten each bone by 6 cm. the only thing im afraid from is looking like an alien with extreme long legs.

and would i not be very unproportionate if i only lengthen one segment by 3 inch? isnt it better to do 2 surgeries to look more proportionate?

Quote from: Uppland on September 14, 2015, 05:14:32 PMAs usual I'm the conservative. My leg length look similar to yours, perhaps even slightly shorter, and I will not lengthen more than 6CM max to stay in proportion.

I would aim for a gain of 5-6CM, but that's just me.

i think it also depends on your current height. if youre just 5 foot with my proportions, lengthening 6 cm could get you out of proportions. but if your 6'2 with my proportions 6 cm will do nothing. but i dont know whats the maimum for my height (174 cm morning and 172,5 at night)

never measured my inseam, but i wear jeans with a length of 76 cm. and i can say theyre a lil bit too tall for my legs. my sitting height must be around 97 cm then.

my inseam calculation was totally wrong, ive measured my knee height and it contained around 50 cm.
