wrist/ankle size in relation 2 bone structure

[Figure_]

wrist size = 6.25"
ankle size = 8.25"
( small measurements )

my question is , are these 2 measurements the be all end all in relation to knowing wether u have large medium or small bones ?

because everywherer other than these 2 places it seems that my bone structure is reasonably big , like ive got wide / thick shoulder bones ( clavicle ) , and my waist / hip / pelvic /upper leg structure is also quite wide and thick ...

so is it possible 2 have a mix of thick and thin bones ?? or is that impossible

cheers

just measured my wrists and ankles, i was relatively interested. i do know my writsts are small i think my ankles are average:

wrists: 7 inches (cold)
ankles: 9.25 inches (cold)

i'm in general a pretty narrow guy, i don't have to broad shoulders, i have a thin waist, i have thin wrists, and ankles.. but i put on muscle fairly well and always have had a thick upper arm, chest, and leg area. i think the wrist and ankle measurments are a pretty good idea at how thick your bone structure is, but its not the "all end all" factor as you described. like i said i had naturally kinda thick limbs in ratio to my wrist and ankle size

Wrists: 6.5"
Ankle: 8"

I have broad shoulders and a tiny waist, although my frame is very delicate overall.

Those with large bone structures are the ones capable of adding the most muscle to their frames, although well developed small-boned brehs tend to look more aesthetic. The articles over at weighttrainer.net go on and on about relating bone structure to bodybuilding though if you're interested in learning more.

Ya, Ive seen a bunch of things that calculate your "ideal" measurements based off wrist size. It will never be perfect but I heard some well proportioned old skool bodybuilders used something like this ( dont know their names).

To OP, I guess its possible to have a mixed bone structure. Dont really know too much though.

Wrist 7"
Ankle 9.5"

thanks 4 the reply

we differ in that i wudnt call my structure delicate , ive got a thick and wide torso / wide shoulders ( like straight up and down kinda look, like jason strathom, as apposed to the V taper ur describing ) / and thick pelvis , upper leg and bones ...

so goin by that info ud think id have medium/large bones , but then the wrist and ankle are small ?? so confused lol , wish i was just big all over the show lol

ne1 out there like me ???

Well exactly what do you consider wide?
Measure your shoulders. Mine are about 49"

From what you described, it sounds like your body fat may just be a bit high... I could be wrong though. When my body fat was high I had all those same characteristics but when I cut the difference was huge.

Your wrist/ankle size does suggest you're small-boned though.

Yeah you have wide shoulders but like favori said, high bf + fat storage around midsection takes away from v-taper.

ohk swt , and yea i get wat ya mean , but i cud tell that even if i was at a low bf % around the midsection , that it wud still b fairly wide ae , definately not like some of the slim waist/hip guys ive seen around these forums

current waist measurement = 32.5"
pelvic area = 36" ish

Trust me, fat storage is person dependant so even if you're in the 15% range you can still have alot of fat in the midsection. I guarantee you going to favori's bf will at least get you a 30" waist if not lower. At ~182 mid-high teens bf I have a 33" waist which dropped by 3" going from 195-182.

[WillThrun]

Wrist= 8
ankle =10.5

oh yea 4 sure if i was around , lets say 10 % bf , my waist wud b a bit smaller
i was thinking around the 30" range aswell mayb 31ish, whats considered a big or small waist size ?

[Big-Ben.]

Wrist: 7"
Ankle: 10" (I've had a few injuries to both, so I took the measurement of the smaller one.)

Wrist= 8
ankle =10.5

fark , ur a big unit lol

[Patrik24]

my wrists: little over 7

ankles, who cares.

[G A B E]

I have really big ankles, and pretty small wrists....

tru , what are your measurements man ?

bump
is it possible 2 have a mixed size bone structure ?
( sorry 4 the bump )

[impossible12]

Wrist: 7.5
Ankle: 9.3

[mainguy]

I think wrist size is a poor measure of bone structure (overall). Parts of a persons body will vary greatly, its entirely possible to have small wrists and thick shoulder bones with a large upper body.

ahk cheers 4 ur input man , cos yea that basically sounds like me ae
anyone else have reasonably thin wrists but are quite thick else where ?

[eXpiRaTioN_DaTe]

wrists almost 8.5, ankles just under 11
id say i have pretty thick/dense bones cause i look a bit lighter than i actually weigh and im not really that fat. to put it in perspective my waist is over 40inches but i have abs when i flex
