I’m half joking. But as a 30-something who used to be very active, I recognize I’m over the hill and my joints sound like pop rocks

    Couldn’t that be easily communicated without individual measurements? Like, people with long legs/arms do this, people with ling arms/short legs do this, etc? Generally curious: my partner is 6’4", and this could be useful for him.

      There are several tipping points that are worth calculating abd having a proper measurements of the levers in one’s body allows for proper ranking of the possible movements/exercises.

      But yeah, there are general rules one can look at, like when you see Phelps with a 2 meters arm aperture that makes him very fit for swimming.
