Quote from: zack420 on February 22, 2018, 09:19:41 PM@myloginacct Is there any point in morning height? Since it only lasts for 30 mins after waking up. In my opinion a person's real height should be the one that stays static like the evening height.


Yes, you are taller at morning because of lumbar discs
measure yourself right after waking up, you will be 1-2 cm taller

I know but it doesn't last very long now does it? Maybe for an hour or two. So shouldn't our real height be the evening one?

It's good for feeling better about yourself. People who do over 5cm per segment: why?

doesn't matter, that's also your height
in fact you don't have a strict height

Alright it makes sense, too bad it's temporary and for a short duration. I would have preferred the morning height stayed till midnight.

but you know everybody is 6-7
that's my case too, most of my uncles (4 uncles) are 6/6-2 (that's what they claim, I don't know exactly maybe a bit less than their claim for some of them) and I'm not insecure. I don't feel short next to them as my shoulders are at the same level than their shoulders (for those at 6ft). 2 of them are white, 1 is black, another one is mixed
and I know they are tall, so no reason to be insecure
thanks to them I can be sure that average is far from 6ft or even 5-11


And it's weird. 180cm+ guys sometimes feel huge to me. Sometimes not. It seems to depend on how distant I am from them, but not in the way you'd expect. They look bigger when they're farther away.

This someone who is 6ft, you can see even though Rob is 5'8 his shoulders don't look THAT much lower than his.

People who do over 5cm per segment: why?

This is when the height difference starts to get real, this guy is 6'3, a full 7 inches taller. This is when it starts to look real.

People who do over 5cm per segment: why?

That proves why someone wants to lengthen more than 5cm. Because they are not that much.
To be honest, 5cm make a good difference to some heights, epsecially when you are a little beyond average and you become a little above (1.75 to 1.80). But 7cm make a good difference and I can see it between me now and a friend of my previous height.
We have 7cm difference and trust me, I look much taller than him.
Anything less than 5cm makes LL to not worth it and for me, 7cm is the golden border between safeness and making you seeing way different than before.
For proportions 2 cm (5 to 7) make no real difference at all so what matters for me is safeness and a big difference between before and after LL.
And 6.5 to 7.5 cm are the golden ratio.

Hey bodybuilder,  how much lengthening are u planning for second LL. And don't you think that you will look so disproportionatal after second LL as everyone here says total 10 cm ( 6cm femur and 4 cm tibia)  will make me so disproportionatal

problem with 2 segments is always arm length and in some cases head and general size

I'd rather be thought of as having short arms than just short, personally.
