Considering adding 4 inches (10 cm) to height
« on: March 02, 2015, 05:22:44 PM »
Hey guys, I'll make this short (no pun intended). I am 5'9 and my wingspan is 5'9, could I possibly do 4 more inches without looking dissportionate?

Thanks for your answers!

You will look disproportionate, -4 inch ape index would look off, especially since there are guys who are 6' 1" with a +4 inch ape index.

Look at Rocky Marciano. 71" tall with 68" reach, and his arms looked pretty short.


-1 inch wouldn't be noticeable, and I'd say -2 inches is within the range of normal, but any more is pushing it.

I'm also 69" with a 70" wingspan

Hm, you're right. My upper torso is 2 ft long so is there a way that I could add some lengthening to my arms as well to balance my legs maybe going 3 inches longer?

Because people on forums are overly nice because they are often in the same position of having
a short wingspan. IRL people notice when you have short arms.

I made a mistake on my wingspan since I was trying to measure it myself. It's actually 6'0 son lengthwning up to 6'0 tall would make have a 1:1 ratio which should look okay I guess.

Four inches on one segment is totally possible, but it takes a long time to lengthen, chances of complications increase exponentially, and then recovery is going to be a bitch. However, if you are set on 10 cm, I think Dr. Guichet is going to be the best choice.
