Much more research needed. The vast majority of literature and this test relates to "endurance" rather than short bursts of action. In fact from what I've read the relationship between digit ratio and power sports didn't hold up well at all. It was found for marathon runners (i.e. endurance) those with low ratios generally had better performance. But for sprinting this was not the case. I think a whole lot of other physiological factors are involved rather than fetal testosterone per say.
Measured my hands using online tutorials (so not very accurate) but I have a 0.92 ratio for left, 0.95 for right. What does that mean, if they're significantly different for each hand?
On a side note however I suck at sports lol, I have butter fingers. Guess it's not always 100% perfect.
Eh, gotta take it all with a grain of salt- it obviously doesn't take into consideration experience/training/diet/etc. My ring finger is almost a centimeter longer than my pointer finger, and I've never really won anything (well.. haven't really officially competed in anything). But I do have relatively poor social skills and other markers of higher early-life testosterone.
well i'm only 5 7 and roughly 145 lbs and my ring finger is much larger than my index finger and In high school I Played varisty football in a 6A division school as linebacker and second string running back. So I suppose it's possible. Interesting theory. I was always told It was shocking to see someone my stature take down men people assumed were faster and better athletes cause they were taller.
0_0 they keep your damn embryonic fluid on your record?!?! What the hell are they trying to keep track of? Well come get me I've got my .45 locked BACK!

@SILTOF1LTO Yeah, that's YOU. Just because you don't fit the average doesn't negate it's reality.

those are awesome theories but need more study.. and kind of pointless in the end. i mean life isn't a 5000 race track.
