    I’m intrigued about what my measurements signify to an expert.

    Wingspan: 5’7” or 170
    Sitting height: 34.5” or 87.5
    Standing height: 5’5.5” or 166

    I understand that the typical standard for wingspan is that it generally equals your standing height, potentially being slightly longer (like mine) or shorter by a few inches, but I am not well-versed in sitting height. I believe I recall that sitting height is usually about half of standing height, which would imply that my torso is elongated and my legs are shorter, and pursuing LL to reach 5’9 or 175 would balance my sitting/standing ratio. My pediatrician actually predicted that I would be 5’9 when I was a child, so this would align.

      I undertook this some time back, I might be mistaken, but starting from beneath your privates, measure straight down to the floor. then take that measurement in centimeters and divide it by your height in centimeters. usually, that ratio is .46. You need to approximate whether your increased height will exceed 0.49. I think that exceeding 0.49 or reaching 0.5 would appear unnatural concerning the proportions between legs and torso. For instance, mine shifted from 0.46 to 0.49, which is the upper threshold of the leg to body ratio.
