How to measure correctly?

Edit Post

Hi guys!

Can you tell me how you measure your height correctly?

Thanks

Measure only when you wake up or even a few hours after. Try placing a box on your head while you're standing next to a wall, also make sure you are standing with decent posture and you aren't wearing shoes, then use a pencil to mark where the bottom of the box meets the wall then measure that mark.

1.85m as in 6'0-6'1? This procedure won't help you with w/e problems you currently have.

What exactly do you mean? I just wanted to make sure that I have measured correctly and it should be 6'1 which is 185cm

Oh, my bad. There are few peeps around 5'11+ who have been hanging around here talking about getting LL and I thought you might've been one of them.

With sneakers and inlays i reach 1,88. With high shoes and thicker inlays i reach 1,91 and I still feel to short. What am I supposed to do?

You're in the 90th percentile in Germany, if your posture is bad you're probably 6'2+ which puts you in the 95th percentile of height easy. Your height isn't the problem, you're most likely over estimating people's height or being biased with your sampling. This is a legit waste of time and money for someone like you. Stand up tall and remember to not estimate the top of the head but by where your eyes meet theirs.
