For instance, boxer Sonny Liston had an convert 84 in cm 0 adj on reach despite being only convert 72 1 2 in cm 0 in height. This unusually long reach allowed him to hit opposing boxers from relatively safe distances where they could not reach him. Disadvantages Because any decrease in height will cause an increase in the ratio of arm span to height, a large span to height ratio may sometimes be an indicator of a health problem that has caused a decrease in height Procedure To measure the arm span, the person must be standing up against the wall with their arms extended sideways at a ninety degree angle. A person with a length measuring tool usually a tape measure will measure from one end of the tip of the finger to the other. This method can be easily done at home and it is not necessary to see a physician, unless for a checkup. See also Wingspan Reference Cite journal last Tan first P.
