SAFE LIMIT, help me with my future LL
« on: November 30, 2019, 01:09:25 AM »

hey guys. I will make more threads soon.
I want to do Limblengthening in the next year. Im still a bit unsure about the method and how much i should lengthen.

1.) I am not sure whether i should lengthen my femurs or my tibias. I have short Tibias so a longer tibias would look great on me. On the other hand, after a femur surgery i can heal faster and lengthen more (am i right?). I also dont want to loose my athleticism. I enjoy swimming and fitness. I think with femur surgery, I can eventually go back squatting (light weight) in the future, and with femurs this might be more diffcult.

2.) Would you recommend me a safe cm limit? I think 4-5 cm is safe, but not worth the time and price. 9-10 would be nice but too dangerous and too long as well. Im thinking to get 7-8cm (on tibias 6 would be sufficient).
I only want to do 1 surgery.

3) I will probably do LON. Its fast and cheap. Stryde is maybe 3x the price, but you can walk normally some weeks after the surgery, so isnt it worth the price? What do you think about Stryde vs LON, and how much do I need for nail removal surgery?

Thx so much, be prapered for my diary in 2020 :)

Like you, I have shorter tibias. I chose to get stryde with Giotikas for around 50k USD. He seems to be very promising. I'm doing my surgery in January and I'll post a diary when it's all done. I am aiming for 6-7cm. I have 9 months from the surgery date until running a 5k, so I intend to gain a full recovery if possible. I'm also 23 and extremely determined when it comes to recovery.

i will look for your diary in the future.
If everything goes well, I will probably also do 6or7 cm tibias. I think on my legs tibias looks better, but im more recovery and probably more dangerouse for my future lifestyle (weightlifting etc)

The real safe limit is simply NOT TO DO LL.

Other than that it depends a lot on the person.
The idea that if you do 5cm you will recover 100% but if you do 6cm you won't is simply ridiculous.
It depends on the person.
