How do I get taller?

**plaman88** · 10-09-2007, 07:46 PM

Certain workouts?
Certain food/diets?
Any other habits?

I'm 19 and 5'10'', not going to work. I desire major height.

Growth usually completes around 21 yrs. old.
Others may be later or early depends on genetics.

The best you can do is not to impede growth;
- Good nutrition.
- Exercise regularly with proper form.
- At least 7-8 hours or sleep.

That's about it. =)

break your legs, they will grow back faster

**Who?** · 10-09-2007, 11:59 PM

People stop growing at different ages, at 19 you may have already stoped, maybe not. Just get plenty of sleep, drink milk, take calcium and a multivitamin, eat good.

Sleep in a pot plant with some good soil.

**LUCKY_13** · 10-10-2007, 06:28 AM

Options:
1) Wait and see if you grow any more before you hit 21.
2) Have your legs surgically broken and lengthened.
3) Take a growth hormone.
4) Wear higher shoes, something like Gene Simmons from KISS would wear!

Lol.

Unfortunately, there's no easy way to increase height (although a healthy lifestyle with plenty of sleep may help (due to the positive impact on growth hormone production.)) If it's really a big deal to you, go hound some smart doctors about various growth-promoting hormones while you MAY still be young enough to add height, but in all likelihood they won't be willing to help.

I desire major height.

It has its good points. On the other hand, shopping for clothes can be a bitch (really, try to find the shoes you want in a size 15 some time) and I don't quite fit in most cars. (And of course the food budget is proportionately higher; 300 pounds costs almost twice as much to keep fed as 150 pounds.)

cock pushups.

You got any pics? Just curious.

**RuggerPip** · 10-10-2007, 08:11 AM

What's wrong with 5'10?

**naturally_big** · 10-10-2007, 08:30 AM

I feel for you dude! Im also quite short! I went through a phase of wanting to grow taller, but i just realised its not worth it, be happy with who you are! But incase you interested i found that sleeping for at least 10hrs at night and sleeping on your back helps (Something to do with better functionallity of the pituitary gland which releases growth hormone) otherwise what these guys have said nutrition, exercise, stretching and theres tons of supps and products that claim to increase your height but you dont kno if they work! So ja just be happy being short...remember we not short we fun sized! And just because you short doesnt mean you cant be BIG!

Dude, 5'10 isnt short...

**plaman88** · 10-10-2007, 08:43 AM

Its not enough.

Then again what is?

But this really isn't.

**ou7blaze** · 10-10-2007, 08:46 AM

I'm 6'3 and I didn't do anything special to grow this tall, it's all in your genes despite all people try to say (and want to believe). I did however eat a ****load when I was younger, around 15 - 17, how much that helped (if at all) is debatable.

5'10 aint short anyway, my friends 5'7, even he doesn't complain.

**phil2007** · 10-10-2007, 08:51 AM

I like being 5'10". I'm not done growing yet, though. I hope to be 6'0" like my dad

**plaman88** · 10-10-2007, 09:19 AM

I guess I'd just want a guarentee I'll at least be 6ft, anything after that would be a bonus I guess.

Eat kit kat.

**Thomas_Uru** · 10-10-2007, 09:57 AM

Why tall people always want to be taller? No matter how much you exercise, if you aren't genetically able to grow more and if you don't eat, you won't grow. As simple as that

**shay14** · 10-10-2007, 10:19 AM

Life ain't flowers and rainbows kid. You want a guarantee that you'll be great looking as well as 6 foot? Get over it and live with your genetics.

**exothermic** · 10-10-2007, 11:02 AM

to be honest i think they have pills you can buy to take, but i think like midgets use it and it might make you look wierd if it does work and probably has alot of side effects so ide say just be happy with your height at 5'10 thats a good height ide want to be that unless you play basketball or something i dont see why you want to be much taller
