microman monorail tibias dr. mitkovic

Edit Post

thanks!

and why would you think it would look bad, some people can have tibs as long as femur, so even if i went to 9cm it wouldn't look particuarly bad.

i will never do more than 8cm anyway.

there is someone on the old forum that made his tibs longer than femur, the only one that has done that.

you can check his diary on that place, to qoute

my case is a bit more unusual. My tibias are slightly longer than my femurs, and most vets have it the other way round. Before LL, Dr Xia said my tibia was 7cm shorter while Dr Zhao said it was 6.5cm. Not sure which is correct but I lengthened 8.3cm, so I definitely do have longer tibias than femurs now. – shootingfor6cm

When I wear 10CM lifts for fun (which actually give 7CM over normal shoes), my tibiae look really long for my height. Nobody else seems to notice though, as I wear pants over them. It doesn't look horrible but not great persay. Like a lot of RGKey's pics.

i am at 7.2cm, dr. came to see me today.

he said if i go further there is a 25% chance i will get bowed leg in one leg, he would correct it with a device anyway, he said he has had to do this with about 20% of his patients, maily the ones that go above 6cm, so it's not an uncommon thing.

just have to decide whether i should stop or not, will spend the next few hours deciding, i like the idea of leaving with no complications and with 7cm.

Its a good height. One cms is only in your mind.

7 cm is the limit for a good recovery, your have a life to enjoy your live.
Manage the pros and contras, but more cm than 8 is greed and if your leg are bowed, I think its a check point to stop.

Best regards

They're actually perfectly normal looking because they're natural? I've never noticed that they were short except when I do a double bicep pose. I think having a think frame drastically lowers your wingspan.

EDIT:
Read a post on measuring wingspan by laying down on tape measure. Realize that I was measuring with protracted shoulder blade last time. Updated wingspan LOL.

Hi microman,

Can you give us an update. Thanks! I hope you're doing better now.

any updates would be appreciated microman, thanks

It seems that he is just the typical LLer who recovers great and starts enjoying his new height, never thinking about LL and thus abonding this forum I think if he had any problems he would let us now. Anyway, his proportions look really well. I think that for proportion purposes lengthening tibias is MUCH better. The average person has no clue that the femurs are supposed to be onger so he will notice 2 bones that are similar and will not think anything is wrong

Don't make that inference. We don't know how he's doing and out of respect shouldn't speculate.

Also if anything, he probably decided not to post anymore considering that that ED page was posted and what not.
