If i told you he did LL you'd believe me

Thanks man and I'm well aware believe me that's why I'm certain if I get through the first one and still feel the same as I do now about it then I'd go for femurs. Even so I expect that to be a 5+ year process. I'm in no hurry. Proportions will be tricky I have to say..  if all goes well Id have a .47 SH which is below average from what I know but doubt it'd bother me much my arm spans 5'6 though I got a bit of a complex bout them and would rather they be shorter than longer (like they are now) on my body so think that'd be right. We'll see

Be careful arm lenght is more important than you might think -even a few CM can almost make or break an appearance. I've thought about this for a long time and I'm now certain that arms should be at the very least your height divided by 2,44. So if you're 183CM your arms should be at least 75CM or else it'll look increasingly bad especially in shoes.

Also we tend to think of only one dimension on this forum but when height is increased around a decimeter or more width also starts to be an issue. I've tried on shoes that boosted me to 190CM and I would not go over that height barefoot personally. Gaining height without width will make you seem weird no matter how long your arms are.

Like I said sometimes a few CM can be the difference between a normal person and a strange one. At some point it will be more valuable to give up some height to keep a proportionate body. Would you rather be a normal (if thin) 180Cm guy or a weird looking 184Cm guy?

I see your point and I welcome your opinion cause  on here trying to get educated as possible about these things. Like I said I plan on doing 7 to 7.5cm tibias first with that my arm span will be about equal to my height which is acceptable Or so I hear. So I'll wait til that happens and see how I look and feel after that. But thanks for all the advice dude

Alright sure but one last thing: don't stare yourself blind at your armspan. Instead measure your arms because that's what really matters, I have a 174CM armspan and I'm 179CM tall but my arms are only 3CM shorter than my dad who is 187CM so wingspan is not all that.

Take your arm lenght and multiply it by 2,44 for example I have 75CM arms so that times 2,44 is 183. 183CM is really the most I should go for unless I also lenghten my arms. If I had my dads arms I could be 190CM but of course a smaller ratio is preferable, a normal arm lenght is somewhere in the 2,3 range. It's nerdy but I am a proportion nazi so I thought I'd share -think it's very important.

Yeah. Anything beyond 5'11-6'0. Is waste. And anything lower than a offical 5'9 no matter shoes or barefoot. Is minimum you made it barely. You get the basic package of life. No added bonus but your set.

Going to 6'3 is fking retarded. Besides 70% of height is in their legs. But they got the wingspan and clavicles to go with it. You dont.

To each their own. I think 6' is too short to be "sweet" and 6'2 is barely tall where I live. Nothing bad about being 183-188 but it's not special about it either, around here it feels like everyone is in that range.

where I live the average is 9 cm and 6'0 to 6'2 from you is equivalent to 5'10-6'0 here, and 6'0 looks good if u're skinny
