Height

[Hockey Playa]

I have a book on secrets of growth, it goes over nutirition, stretches etc to grow taller. Im 5'11 age 18, id really like to grow 2 inches or so, i havent really been doing the stretches seriously at all, i was wondering if you thought 18 was too old to continue growing? like i alrdy have facial hair and ****, and im alrdy taller than my parents, anyone know any other tips to grow?

5"11?? that's not bad mate.....i'd kill to be 5"11. I'm 5"9. Just live with it.

5'11 is a good height bro. You're luckier than a lot of guys.

I'm 5'10. It's an average height for the position I want to play in football (Defensive Back) I wouldn't mind being about 6'2 though. Gotta deal with it though.

5"11 is solid.

There's no magical pill for height, otherwise the rich kids around the world would all be 6 feet tall.
All the height gain medication/techniques are just scams.

At the same time I totally understand you wanting to gain a few inches. I'm 5'8 - 5'9, I used to be REAL self-conscious about my height. Because it's pretty obvious that everything else being equal, the tall man gets the upper hand in almost everything. Especially women/girls wise, especially at a young age.

On the other hand, sure there are things you can do to fully exploit your genetic height potential. Like eating well, sleeping well and play sports that involves a lot of running and jumping. But the bottom line is: if your genes are not meant to make you 6 feet tall, no miracle in the world can make that happen.

Benoit Briere, Martin St-Louis, Koivu, you don't need to be 6' if you wanna play hockey.

now Basketball would be different

Although it may be a bit late, but going on some form of anti-estrogen therapy and using HGH may increase height.
