Like if it's a sport that you're coming, currently competing in you shouldn't do this before that you finish that right so sports take priority um this is specifically for height gain and you know you can get back to functionality and do a lot of things you like to do but if you're at like a pro competitive level definitely don't do this um i think you'll be back to normal after one year and a half yeah
67:59
What's that? What he was saying with the athletic ability.
68:03
I think I just maybe try to echo.
68:05
I can't, I can't, I just, cause I listened to all of your surgeon interviews or even all, most of your stuff, like Berg to Bergholz and Dr. Robbins, they're saying, I mean, If you would, it wouldn't matter if you, after you do this surgery, like it depends how important this is to you.
68:21
Would it matter to you at the end, if you run like 30 seconds or one minute slower, um, uh, if something along those, I can't exactly quote what they said, but they said something like that.
68:31
So if you're going into it at this mentality, um, you know, I, I, I need perfect athletic ability which is great maybe that's what you want but is is that do you really want to do this surgery in the first place is what i'm trying to get um because i think the thing is you shouldn't be doing this for super these are maybe superficial reasons but it depends how much this bothers you and if it's not really bothering you enough even though like um you know we're I feel like I don't want to recommend the surgery for random people.
69:07
I really don't think it's for that purpose.

So did you feel like once you got this done, did that light switch off? Did you really, do you feel like a big difference now in the height that you find? You do, right?
