What is the average shoulder width for someone 5'8 - 5'11?



I'm analyzing myself (not related to reproductive system

).


I'm 5'9 and I measure 17" joint to joint from the back.

Tell me:
- 1. your height
- 2. shoulder width (joint-to-joint not deltoids)

And no I'm not insecure and I'm not denying it, obviously.

It depends how I stand. I'm 6'3" and if I stand up perfectly straight, with perfect posture, it's about 18". If I stand a little more naturally, it's closer to 19".

"dont get the kind of studies people make here on this kind of stuff." - cause = faulty perception. - solution = answer the question. by the way, you are very good at giving life advice. I feel wiser and more confident then ever. If only I was half as smart as you are...
