Anyone considering LL but worried about torso length/proportions here's an average for torso lengthens. There is a difference in measurements between sitting height and torso length so make sure you read carefully where to measure if you wish to try it http://www.ehow.com/how_8251478_tell-long-short-torso.html

I will keep looking to find one on sitting heights

The head and neck is part of your torso that's why I'm looking for a sitting height one to include that. I found the torso lengthen interesting though not as much of a difference as you'd think most height differences come from legs which is encouraging to LLers. I've heard of the torso lengthening one apperently they inject your spine with something? Either way my spine is fine the way it is haha

This is an excellent link it has just about every body proportion for American male and female from 1st to 99th percentile you could ever imagine. Sitting height is on page 31 definitely worth looking at if proportions is something you concern yourself with.

Quote from: IwannaBeTaller on October 20, 2016, 02:19:17 PMIf you lengthen 20 cms, like apo did, it will become noticeable.

Definitely but for the most part 5-10cm is enough to satisfy most which I think most people's torso/leg ratio could handle

It's quite possible if proportions is something that you notice but 11.5 cm is still pretty reasonable I'm assuming you did 2 segments as well which would definitely help even it out alot

I think 10cm is a pretty good max point although some people could pull off 12cm. For I think the thing that would bother me the most is arm length compared to height idk why but that's always been a bother for me
