Arm span
:''This article is about the physical measurement. For other uses of the term, see Reach (disambiguation)''. thumbnail Arm span or reach (sometimes referred to as wingspan) is the physical measurement of the length from one end of an individual's arms (measured at the fingertips) to the other when raised parallel to the ground at shoulder height at a one-hundred eighty degree angle. The average reach correlates to the person's height. Age and sex have to be taken into account to best predict height from arm span.〔http://erj.ersjournals.com/content/37/1/157.abstract〕 ==Advantages== An above-average reach is advantageous in sports such as basketball, boxing, discus throw, fencing, and swimming. For instance, boxer Sonny Liston had an reach despite being only in height. This unusually long reach allowed him to hit opposing boxers from relatively safe distances where they could not reach him.
