Height increase
Well this is not one of those stupid threads where people ask for ways to increase height. But today I was measuring my height, its 5'9.5 ish, only a month or so ago it was 5'8.5 ish. I still have my markings on the wall from a month or so showing my old height. There is a clear difference of an inch or so
.I am sooooo happy. I wish I could somehow hit 5'11 or 6'0. Then it would be awesome!!!Any ideas how it increased so drastically? Coz till grade 9 or 10 I was like one of the top 3-4 tallest people in my class. But then I dunno what happened my growth stalled and I remained at this height for atleast 3-4 years while my other shorter friends outgrew me, and now suddenly booooom all of a sudden this height increase!!!. |

Seems a little late for a growth spurt, but I guess anything is possible!

I am 21 and I just hit 6'0. I was 5'11 with shoes on 2 years ago. Did you measure with shoes on? A new pair of shoes can add something like an inch to your height instantly.

Oh actually I measured them barefooted.
PS: I am just 19, so I hope there is a bit of growth left . |

I've heard people say men grow into their early 20's.
True? I don't know. |

I hope this will happen to me, because I too was used to be the "tall guy" until my freshman year, then I stopped at 5'8 and I've grown half a inch since (I'm 19 too). I'd be satisfied at 5'9, content at 5'10, happy at 5'11 and shocked at 6'0... too bad I'll never be *my perfect height*, 6'3.

Yeah, definately does sound like a late spurt of growth there, usually 20-21 is a good indication of how you will stay.
I'm 17 and a bit and just touched 6"0, so hoopefully I can stretch a bit more out in the next few years ![]()

I've been stuck around 5'8 since 6th grade.
I used to be a giant. Now, I'm slightly shorter than most of my peers. |

I'm 5'9.
The world was made for people our height. My friends roomie is 6'8 and literally has to duck his head to get in doors. I keep expecting a juggler on a unicycle to pass by and a clown to be with him. I'm happy with my height, you should be too. |

hang from a pull up bar for like 30 min. a week minimum. within like 2 months u should grow around 2-4 inches. decompresses the spine and the cartilige inbetween ur discs stretches.

yea, research it. or just use common sense. think out it, ur cartilige is getting stretched out cuz ur spine is hanging freely and being pulled downward instead of being compressed. gotta admit tho, 30 min. a week is a pain in my arse!
