Hey, so i’m kinda desperate… Im trying to become a model. My measurements are perfect but im just not tall enough. I’m about 5’5 ft. tall but as a model, you have to be at least 5’8 ft. tall. I have been interviewed by several model agencies and they’re all saying that i would make a perfect model, and that i could have a very big career, but they’re all also saying that i am a bit too low. And that just makes me sad, because i really love modeling, and i would do just about anything to grow taller… So is there any way to grow taller, like exercises, stretches, or special things that i should eat?
It would be a really great help! Thank you

I am 19 and I am 5’5" tall, my dad is 6’0 and my mom is 5’5", ain’t I supposed to grow taller? Are there any supplements, pills or treatments or things like that that could help me grow taller? Thanks for the help.

By the way, my brother is 15 and he is 5’8". I played soccer since I was 6 and he didn’t, I lifted weights since I was 14 (yeah I have a badass body and good looks, I’m just too short). Did the weight lifting and the soccer affect my growth? If I keep doing it will that decrease my chances of growing?
And yeah, my parents measurements are right. That’s why I am pissed lol I should be at least 5’8"

Well, I think I’m a worrying too much about my height, even though I’m tall already. But I don’t like other people growing taller than me. I don’t know why, I just don’t.

First of all, I’m 15, 6ft, 11stone, and I’m a Vegetarian, if you need to know that.

Anyway, I’ve done some measurements today. It came out to be 185cm, which converts to about 6ft 1. I remember in my first year of high school (3 years ago now), I was 175cm. So I’ve grown 10cm in three years. It doesn’t seem like a great amount, so I don’t think I’ve had a growth spurt lately. I think I probably had one in Primary School. :\

But my question is, do you think I can expect another growth spurt in the next few years? Or will my growth be coming to a stop round about now? (I know men apparently grow till they’re like 21, but my best friend who’s a girl and just a couple of cm smaller than me said her brother stopped growing around 15).

So yeah, what do you think? Is the 10cm in 3 years significant? Some other boys in my school seem to be smaller than me at the start of the year, but have grown quickly and overtaken me by the end of the year. :\ I know I shouldn’t worry about it but I just can’t help it.

(Btw. Don’t suggest spiking my hair up or anything to appear taller. It doesn’t actually make me taller, just appear taller. I want to be naturally taller. xD)
Erm. Well I’m definitely 185cm, so I must be taller than you. But I used an online calculator to convert it, and it came out as 6ft 1. I really hate imperial calculations though.

Are you sure you haven’t got your own calculations wrong? Sorry. 6ft 3 is apparrently 190cm. =\
I meant I used an online calculator to convert it from 185cm to foot and inches. I’ve checked various websites, and they all say 185cm IS 6ft 1.

It says on the site: All measurements will be taken in the APFT uniform.

I’m 6ft in my boots(rounded to the nearest inch). Without my boots I’m 5’11 tho.

I’ve just turned 15 two months ago, and I’m at 1.57 – 1.58. Problem is, I really want to grow just a few inches taller, preferably to my maximum height, but I want to tone myself down. My upper body is okay, but my butt and my thighs are massive. Apparently, it’s genetics, but I still want to tone them down properly and grow taller.

So I just wanted to know: is there anything I can do to grow taller to my max height naturally, like by playing sport? And how do I tone my lower body properly?
P.S. The measurements for my height are in metres. Just to clear up a bit
