can I make it any longer?
I find 69 inches from fingertip to fingertip pretty small for my height of 5"11 how can I make me reach llonger? does stretching help?

This is the rack that Thomas Hearns used to achieve his 78" reach. I can give you an insider tip that it is much cheaper to build your own rack than to order one prebuilt. Are you good with woodworking?

you can't do anything about that you are born like that, most whites and *****s have short reach maybe its genetic while latino, southeast asians and blacks have longer.

I'm southeast asian and I was wondering if yoga would help increase reach I still have a hard time reaching my toes too. I'm only 18 too so maybe I can still increase it

It can't increase your reach at 18 you already stop growing. Anyway reach does not matter! its the arm length that matter measure from armpit to the end of the fist.

My reach is 67inches im 5'5 1/2 armlength 25 3/4 inches almost 26".
I have longer armlength than MAB though he is taller and have 70" reach yet he have 24 1/4 armlength.

Sometimes i wonder when having longer is having me some problems with throwing hooks on the head because seems kinda slow when u have long arms.

I also have short arms. My friend who is in med school said that he could do an operation to cut some of the bone from one arm and put it into the other, giving me one long arm and one short one. Do you think this would be good for boxing, and do you know any fighters that have done this?

Wow. the thread poster is pretty dumb.

lol I hope you're joking

:rofl: :rofl:

dude it isnt a massive deal

you can fight in close, bobbing and weaving, going to the body etc if you have a short reach

Wow. the thread poster is pretty dumb.

Really.

My advice to him is..... Start in-fighting.

I'm not dumb ok I know there's in fighting but I prefer out fighting it allows me to be more strategical, move alot more and gives me more time to dodge punches and makes boxing a whole lot easier for me. In fighting is so annoying for me.

What is that and how do you use it?

I hope you don't laugh at me and forgive my ignorance, but i don't even know what that is.

By the way, i don't have a short reach... i was just wondering.

ive got a great idea, become the best in-fighter ever

You will not make your reach longer, but if it is for boxing, a great jab will seem like it extends your reach.

I thought Ive heard it all

yea his dumb, take some stones in your hands and then wait, they should grow then

Its ok man... I only have 20 inch arm length. But maybe it will be longer as I lose more weight.

Anyways, don't let this discourage you.

can I make it any longer?

I increased my reach from 29 inches to 31 1/2 inches by doing Yoga and Pilates three times a week for 6 months. This was after the age of 35.

lololol..........
