Before
Quote from: KrP1 on November 12, 2016, 09:42:03 AMYeah thats what the telemetry shows. I think that you could not add the sitting height for a correct measurement
Well part of your legs is counted into sitting height.
I'm short and long-legged.
I'm 161cm with a sitting height of 82.5cm.
My current leg-to-height ratio is 0.481 and my final ratio will be 0.506 
can someone explain why sitting height is so important to you. genuinely curious because I've never given i thought yet i see a lot of talk about it on the forums. thanks

In Chris's case I think it's important. In most of the cases not. Most of the people here have a SH of ~90cm (around) and imo it's a decent SH for most heights.

I guess what I was trying to ask was: is it to figure out your torso to leg ratio post lengthening or is it literally just for figuring out what you'll look like sitting down next to other people? Thanks

It's a mixture. Mainly used to figure out Torso to Leg ratio, but I have my own problems with this sort of measurement.
I'd say from my own experience. Things that are real as far as proportions concerns are...
Width of shoulders and hips. Arm length and how low your arms hang-some people like my father have shorter necks and his arms started up higher than mine and ended higher despite being same length. Torso to legs.
It's still young in my post ll experience but I haven't noticed the sitting issue. Probably none of these things matter to other people but you should take your own perception into consideration because this is the body you will have for the rest of your life.

For my experience and what im trying to explain in this post Most people could do Leg lengthening without worrying with proportions. Especially if they only do one segment. I did femurs. And im sure that if i do my tibias for 5 cm more i will continue looking normal. So guys. Dont think So much about proportions. Except if you have abnormal ones to begin with.
