Questions on Lifting and Growing Taller

[donjuan87]

I am 18 years old, 5' 8"

1. Can I start to lift? (I don't think I am fully grown, and I don't what to stunt my height, if it's true that lifting does)

2. Are there any foods can I eat to grow taller? Not supplements, but regular food.

French Fries...that's right BurgerKing's french fries and mountain dew.

Morning, lunch and dinner. I did this for about a year and grew 4 inches. Lost a lot of weight too. Best of luck

1.) Dunno

2.) There is no specific food to make you grow, get enough calories and protein and you'll be fine.

Lifting will not stunt growth. DAFS.

Your height is 50% Genetics, 25% Environment, 25% Food.

If you wanna grow tall concentrate on calcium and protein kinda foods. Eating balanced meals (fruit, meat, grains, etc) - Get a lot of sleep cause sleep is when you grow muscles, get tall, grow hair, etc.
