My proportions, 167cm + 5-10cm? (PIC)

Will it look proportional with extra 10 cm femur/tibia?

Quote from: Taller on October 26, 2015, 07:15:45 AMPost more pictures for better feedback, but seems like you could do 10CM on femurs and still look proportionate. 10CM on tibs would be a disaster, though.

What about 5cm on femur and 5cm on tibia?

Quote from: Taller on October 26, 2015, 09:50:00 AMBetter looking but harder and longer to accomplish.

So you think just lengthen just choose one between femur and tibia is better? I've read that lengthening tibia is far safer, Would 5cm-7cm on tibia be good?

Quote from: Penguinn on October 26, 2015, 12:14:54 PMYour tibias lengthened would look awful. Either do both, or just femurs.

You think I have long tibias?

I've heard that lengthening tibias is much safer and less risk of complications than lengthening femurs.

And doing both will be too extreme, more dangerous, more costly and longer time for recovery. Don't you think?

Quote from: Johnson1111 on May 15, 2018, 11:00:51 PMDefinitely do both. And with both you'd be able to go over 8cm overall which is another plus.

But then the athletic mobility get more fked up.

Besides it takes more money and time.

Quote from: Johnson1111 on May 15, 2018, 11:10:08 PMI'd argue you'd get more fked up doing 8cm on one segment than 4.5cm on both segments at 5'4" starting height

However as far as the money goes, I understand completely.

Possibly, have to look into it again. If both segments I think is better 6cm : 4cm or 7cm : 5cm as femurs are naturally longer than tibias.

Btw, 167cm is 5'6".

Quote from: Ruan c. silveira mendonça on July 30, 2018, 04:27:50 PMthis will depend on the proportion of your femur and tibia, in my case I have (femur 42cm and tibia 42cm) so I have femur 50% and tibia50%
anatomically the femur can reach 59% and tibia 41%, in my case could stretch 8cm would be (femur 50cm and tibia 42cm) so I would have a femur 54% and tibia46% and still be within normality.
then take measurements of the femur and tibia and see the relationship between them, this will give you an idea of ​​how much and what you can do,
for people who already have larger femurs than the tibia the ideal was to stretch a little in each one.

I suspect you measure it wrongly. It's extremely unlikely that you're born with tibias as long as femurs.

Quote from: taller_in_Kiev on July 30, 2018, 05:11:40 PMBruce Wayne, you really haven't got a clue pal.  Even the mod, Penguin advises you to do femurs.  And no tibias is not safer and less complicated. It's arguably the reverse!  If you have the money and patience, spread the gains, otherwise just do your femurs.

No, you haven't got a clue. Even if I do femur, still wouldn't go to Jamal.
