My ringfinger is the same length as index. Here is an idea. Before my friday workout tomorrow i am going to pull on my ringfinger to stretch it longer. Maybe i get a testo boost. 🙂

My ring finger is way longer than my index, more than Marks but then again I’m 6ft4 and have long limbs and hands etc….

I was always skinny. That’s why I started lifting. This is a marker for test levels, that’s all. So it indicates that your test levels are optimal for your body. That alone won’t say whether you are naturally muscular or not. But it will help if you start lifting.
Other genetic factors include:

– Somatotype
– Skeletal Formation
– Neuromuscular Efficiency
– Muscle Fiber Density (total number of muscle fibers)
– Ratio of Type 2 to Type 1 Muscle Fibers
– Myostatin expression
– Muscle length/Muscle Bellies

…none of which were in my favor. But at least it seems, from this, that I had/have optimal testosterone levels for my body naturally.

My ring finger is noticeably shorter than my index – no surprise as I can barely put on any bulk (though I know I also don’t eat enough). I once had my testosterone tested and it was in normal range but nearer to the low side of that range.

But Mark, I’m curiosu – aren’t you always telling us how you used to be so skinny? That would imply you had a naturaly lower T baseline. I’m assuming your finger didn’t grow once you started working out did it? You said length is determined in the womb.

My index finger is much longer than yours, but ring is a little shorter. Why is the ratio chosen against the index finger and not, say, the pinky?
