some people say and some doctors too that its safe to go for 5 cm tibia and 5 cm femur rather than going 7-8 in just one part!
but some members here say we can get 7 cms safely in just one part, eithr tibia or femur!
also is there any other way to get our hand limbs longer? apart from breaking bones and surgeries!
whats the best exercise for shoulder width? to get bigger muscular shoulders, (i wish that suits a woman)
Safe ranges is not a set thing it depends entirely on how your body tolerates and reacts to lengthening. You being a girl your muscles and tendons are likely softer and more flexible than most guys technically meaning you can lengthen a bit more possibly. Yes doing 5cms on each segment is better and safer however wait till you wake up after surgery and look down at your once perfectly functioning legs and you will likely regret this right away, even on morphine you will still feel pain! The pain though will get better but you are still in for a very very tough ride.
If i were you i would read Sweden's diary about the risks you face going to 7cms on tibias, looking at 7cms on a ruler look like no big deal however that length in one part of your body is huge! Safe distances for this type of surgery on tibias is typically in the 2.5-4cm range and thats for correcting discrepancies not for height related issues. Once you reach a certain amount of lengthening you will start to lose the ability to move your feet properly, basically you start losing dorsiflexion which is crucial for being able to perform simple things like bending down to pick things up, you need good dorsiflexion to be able to squat. Once the surgery is complete you can improve it but you will never get it back to what it was and the more you lengthen the chances are you will get even less back there is only so much stretching the calf and achilles can take. Your days of running will be pretty much over and if you do run without dorsiflexion you are losing a shock absorber for the body which will be felt in the knees! This is likely the reason for the increased chances of arthritis. I am aware others have lengthened in the 7-12cm range however i can guarantee you they will face problems down the line. Ive said it time and time again there are FAR bigger issues facing you than your proportions if you overdo this surgery. The clowns who frequent this site and claim to be knowledgeable in it haven't 90% of the time even fkn done it. If you overdo this your fkn sitting height and proportions will be the very least of your worries! The clowns on this site would be better off worrying about their ability to walk properly after this let alone nonsense like 'proportions' 'wingspan' etc etc etc. do not listen to people on here who have not done this procedure they remind me of the idiots i see on bodybuilding boards who weigh 150 lbs at 6' who tell guys 70lbs heavier than them with 17"+ arms that they are training and eating wrong!
Another issue with tibias is the potential danger to the knees with the im rod thats inserted into your leg through a split patella tendon, this is yet another tough surgery and traumatic to the body, you will also need it done again to get the rods out so in total thats 3 surgerys!
Femurs i have no experience in as i havent done them. I can take a guess though that your already stretched legs will not appreciate the trauma of a second major surgery and more stretching, the tendons and ligaments around your knees will feel very tight making them prone to potential tears, muscles are exceptionally strong and can put joints under a lot of pressure in a tightened state, i know this from 13-14 years worth of weight training ive often hand to pop my hips to release muscles locking joints into a painful position days after brutal leg sessions. Musculoskeletal problems can condemn you to a lifetime if severe pain and serious misery and discomfort, its the number one reason people become addicted to painkillers!
I understand peoples desire to become taller as much as anyone here theres no denying the advantages tall stature gives people ( particularly men) however theres no point swapping short stature for medium of tall stature and paying the heavy price of over lengthening with pain and discomfort for life.
The lengths described above are likely safe enough for you being a girl, but you need to listen to your own body and not the arm chair experts on this forum and at old forum . the vast majority of folk here will never do this surgery they just like talking about it as they dont have the guts to go through with it themselves. Just like the guys on bodybuilding forums who will never in their life squat 200 for 20 reps let alone 400 for 20 as they simply dont have what it takes to do so.
Im confused for you as well, you are away to be married so someone has accepted you for who you are and has no problems with it, the problems women face due to short stature are NOTHING compared to what guys go through its delusional to think otherwise.
This surgery is serious ! You will likely not experience as much pain again in your life if you do this, so if your pain threshold is low dont go near this surgery. There was a guy where i am now who left before me who was a marine fir 22 years he seen combat yet said this procedure was by far the toughest thing he has ever done! So id take that into consideration before doing this.
I hope anyone who goes through with this surgery gets the outcome they want and it improves their lives,mi have sympathy for the people on here however some are clearly just nutcases who need a different kind of help as their height isnt their only issue great examples being the proportion, sitting height and wingspan police. Two people of the same height can have proportions that are completely different on every area of their bodies.
Now regarding shoulder with you need to hit the lateral head of the shoulders the only way to do that is with side laterals, i personally prefer one arm at a time as it takes other muscles out of the equation better, the two arm version generally shifts a lot of stress on to the traps and neck for some reason. Use reps in the 15-50 range. Your posterior delts id advise single arm bent over laterals starting light and upping the weight over 4-6 sets till you get a set of 20 or so. Front delts are usually hit well enough with any pressing movement and dont necessarily need more direct attention. I used to have a shoulder day with shoulder presses and my front delts ended up aching badly as they were already worked with my chest movements so i ditched them and the aches disappeared completely. If you insist on doing them do them after you have hit chest on the same day so you have more rest in between sessions.
