Recommended Posts

My height is 183cm, cbf'd measuring my arm span again but I remember it being 6" more.

And you deadlift 300+

I think you have it then. Longer arms = better deadlift. I'm fucked. Arm span same as height :(

Not good for benching though bro. Who cares about deadlift? :pfft:

185 height

Practically perfect. :twisted:

Oh, Davinci, you should've drawn me.

The first paragraph of the upper part reports Vitruvius: "Vetruvio, architect, puts in his work on architecture that the measurements of man are in nature distributed in this manner, that is:

a palm is four fingers

a foot is four palms

a cubit is six palms

four cubits make a man

a pace is four cubits

a man is 24 palms

and these measurements are in his buildings".

The second paragraph reads:

"if you open your legs enough that your head is lowered by one-fourteenth of your height and raise your hands enough that your extended fingers touch the line of the top of your head, know that the centre of the extended limbs will be the navel, and the space between the legs will be an equilateral triangle".

The lower section of text gives these proportions:

"the length of the outspread arms is equal to the height of a man

From the hairline to the bottom of the chin is one-tenth of the height of a man

from below the chin to the top of the head is one-eighth of the height of a man

from above the chest to the hairline is one-seventh of the height of a man

the maximum width of the shoulders is a quarter of the height of a man

from the breasts to the top of the head is a quarter of the height of a man

the distance from the elbow to the tip of the hand is a quarter of the height of a man

the distance from the elbow to the armpit is one-eighth of the height of a man

the length of the hand is one-tenth of the height of a man

the root of the penis is at half the height of a man

the foot is one-seventh of the height of a man

from below the foot to below the knee is a quarter of the height of a man

from below the knee to the root of the penis is a quarter of the height of a man

the distances from the below the chin to the nose and the eyebrows and the hairline are equal to the ears and to one-third of the face"

I am sure that isn't me, but hell, I am the second closest in height vs span, so far. I Declare War wins!
