I’m currently 15 and 9 months old and weigh about 159 pounds, standing at 5foot 6and a half. I’ve been working out at the gym for half a year and got really big in my shoulders chest and arms. I Bench 140 and do 80lbs flys and 100 lbs dummbell presses. I naturally have a longer body and shorter legs. My mom and relatives think that if i continue to workout I would not grow to my potential height, is that true? Everyday I drink milk and take omega 3 and multivitamins. My mom is 5’3", dad is 5’4 and a half". I stopped growing for almost 8 months, but wen I hit the gym I gre half an inch. Can you give me any advice?

I’m a 16 year old asian guy whose 5’8. My mom is 5’2 and dad is 5’8. I really think it’s over for me to continue growing because of genetics. I heard male teens continue to grow until 21 years old, but is that true for my case? I really want to be about 6 feet tall. Are there any tips to grow taller? Thanks.

I took a few shots of Depot Testosterone in High School…in the back of my mind I have this terrible regret that I could have been taller…you see I’m pretty short (about 5’6") although my mom is about 5’0" (short too) and my dad is about 5’9" …do you think that I was just naturally ending up this height, or did I sabatoge my self?

If I was just supposed to be short than Oh well, what can I do…. I’m 24 now..(fully grown)

Also my sister’s really short, about 5’1"..so it might just be genetic…and all of my uncles are pretty short on my mom’s side

But my little brother’s like three inches taller than me, with bigger hands and feet

I’m 13 1/2 , I am 4′ 11”, my dad is 6 ft, my mom
Is 5 ’9” and I is there any food or drinks, or anything but shots or surgery, my doctor said il grow 5′ 5” 2 years ago! And also I have that feeling that my spine just wants to grow, is there any exercise? Thank-you

I have been playing basketball since I was 6 years old. My parents made me play because I was tall and naturally was expected to, as were my brothers. I think I liked basketball as a kid. Then when I joined a traveling team in 7th grade I realized how horrible I was in comparison to most girls. I have never been an overly aggressive person and this continues to hinder my performance. In 8th grade though, I finally gained some confidence and began scoring a lot in the games and even started. In 9th grade I made the JV team and I worked really hard that year to better myself so I was satisfied with my performance even though I didn’t start. In 10th grade I started on the JV and was easily one of our best players. I scored more than I ever have and averaged 8 pts a game (which may not seem like a lot but compared to the rest of the team, was pretty solid).
Now. In 11th grade I made Varsity but only because I seniority and there were no other girls trying out. The coach and I have never been on fantastic terms-we are both very awkward with one another. During this past year I left for vacation and missed a tournament, twisted my ankle and missed a game, got sick and missed another game. Overall, I hardly ever played and as the season went on I began dreading basketball more and more. By the end of the season I averaged 10sec a game, was completely discouraged, had no motivation to play, and hated/hate basketball. I cried all the time. My mom grew very upset with me because it didn’t seem like I was even trying to play anymore. She threatened to make me quit and instead of arguing I begged her to do so… I wasn’t the only one-many of the girls on our team hated the coach and wished the season was over, but at least they were still good enough to play in the games and make a difference. I felt like breaking my leg and sitting out the whole season so at least I would have some dignity in my injury. In our finals, I prayed that we would lose so that I didn’t have to go to practice 3 extra days. We lost. I know-it was completely selfish.
Ugh. Every time I see my coach and get an email about an open gym now I get this sick feeling in my gut. I REALLY DON’T WANT TO PLAY. But I feel like next year I will be a senior and it’s my last chance. I feel like I would be a quitter if I dismembered. And I don’t want to be a couch potato which my mom fears if I quit (although I’m pretty active so I think I would just join another sport instead). Also, I think it looks good on college apps that I play two varsity sports and if I quit…well. I feel like basketball has always been a part that defined me-even my friends are like: why aren’t you playing? I thought you were really good?
I don’t know if I’m good anymore. I think I have the potential to be good, but I am so unconfident in my abilities and I have no desire whatsoever to try to boost them again. I have done so way too many times, and I am ready to give up altogether.
If it were up to me, I would focus all my time on the other sport I play-tennis which I think is so fun and relaxing, and then maybe join a fun sport like dance or karate or something next winter instead.
Thoughts?

i used to eat fast food almost everyday. im 15, and 5’8. i’ve completely cut out fast food, and am working out, and eating very healthy starting last week. Will this help me grow taller? My dad is 6’1 or 6’2 and my mom is about 5’5-5’6. How much taller do you think i would grow? Also does heavy weight lifting stunt growth?

okay, it has been months since i’ve grown and i’m starting to worry that i might not grow anymore in the future!!! i don’t want to become a midget or something, so i need help!!!!! i’m only 13 years old and i’m about 4’10′ in height. i learn that our height is base on our genetics or DNA that we got from our parents. my dad, is 5’5′ and and my mom is 5’0′. do you guys think that there is a chance for me to grow taller as i go through high school in the future??? i don’t know what to do. i heard that getting enough sleep and eating healthy with plenty of exercises can help me grow, but i’m still not sure, so give me your advices! thanks!

I play some sports but they don’t help much. I love playing Basket Ball (but I can’t play by myself unless my mom is around.) I do cheer-leading but that doesn’t help me grow taller. What does? any suggestions?

How tall do you think if… I am 13 and 4 mounths old, i am 5’9" (haha i measured it right), and my parents are both 5’11". My Mom’s Dad is 6’6" also, and i have his head shape, and his bone structure and his personality. But i have my Dad’s muscles and his athletic body. How tall do you think i will get up to, and do you think i will be tall? (also i havent had any major growth-spurts, just growing 1/100 of a centimeter every day, hahaha)

Oh also, My Dad’s Dad is 5’10" and My Dad’s Mom is 5’4", My Mom’s Mom is 5’2", and My Mom’s Dad is 6’6". I have a naturally athletic body, but my Mom had asthma, so i have severe asthma. My Dad was in college football also.
obviously how tall i am has a number. and obviously you didn’t come here to answer my question, barcode.
look all i want is an educated guess, cause i know its not gonna be right on the spot, but i want to know how do you think i will be,

OK so i’m 5’3-4 and im a 17 year old female and i was woundering if its possible to grow taller naturally. my dad is 6’1 and my mom is 5’4 and my brother is 5’11.

also is there any think i could do to help growth such as exercise and food if there is what exercises and food?
also does milk help?
my ideal height would be 5’7-5’9
also i missed a question out is there any exercises etc tog et longer legs

I am 15 years old and i am 5’9 and I’m just wondering if I can still grow taller. My dad is 6 feet and my mom is 5 feet my uncle is 6 feet 4 and 3 other people in my family is around 6 feet 8 just about everybody on dads side is over 6 feet but everyone on moms side is short. My goal height is 6 feet 2 or 6 foot 4

I’m in 8th grade, I’m about 6’0-6’1. I play basketball and am tall now but I won’t be for high school.. I want to know if more sleep or milk or anything will help me grow to about 6’3 before freshman year. My mom is about 5’8 and my dad 6’1.. My grandpa is about 6’3 though. I’ve only grown about 5 inches in the last year and a half. That’s kinda depressing. Any help please?

I’m writing a story, and I can’t decide on a name for my main character. She’s 5 foot 4 inches tall, and weighs 115 pounds. She has light brown wavy hair that goes just a little past her shoulders, and dark brown roots (she’s letting her hair grow out, as she reminds everyone when they comment on how she needs a touch up) She has hazel eyes that look dark brown most of the time, and really thick lashes. She’s curvy, but skinny with an hourglass figure, and kind of tanned from the sun with naturally flushed, rosy cheeks. She’s smart, and knows how to get what she wants but she’s also a serious party girl. I’ve got 2 names for her.
*Avery
or…
*Aubree (Aubrey)
And I can’t for the life of me decide which to go with. Which one do you like better, and why?
Thank you so much!:D
She does have flaws, I just didn’t feel the need to write about them in here. But for those of you who are wandering, she’s dyslexic, and has in on the edge of going in to depression, which is why she parties so much. (very fragile mental state) She lost her mom, and fights non stop with her father.

I am a 20.1 1/3 year old boy from NY. I am 5’7 1/2" (sometimes measured 5’7"; varies from 5’7 to 1/2" and weigh 115 lbs. 34 – 26 – 34.
My Dad is 6′ and my Mom is 5’4, my older sister is 5’6", my younger sister (13 3/4) is 5"4.
So, will I grow taller or stay the same.

I’m 16 and she’s 14. We’ve been seeing each other for almost 2 years. I’m 5’6 and I don’t expect to grow much more. My dad is the same height and my mom is 5’2.
My girl comes from a tall family. Both of her parents are tall. When we met she was about 2 inches shorter than me and then she grew alot during the last 2 years and now stands 6’0 even in her barefeet. And she’s still growing! She likes to tease me by wearing high heels to tower over me even more and she stands close to me and look down on me to tease me and make me feel funny. She has one pair that’s so high that when she wears them I come up to her shoulder. I don’t mind it that much but she likes being naturally taller than me and I like her being taller than me now. I like her and she likes me but often we get stares and some people make comments. How do we deal with it?

would i be able to grow to 5’9" or 5’10"? im 14 years old and my mom is 5’3" and my dad is 6’2". im 5’7" right now; if i eat a lot of protein and calcium, and aimed for perfect posture as well as take vitamins and drink a lot of water, how tall could i get?

First off, I think "everybody" knows it’s genetics. No need to point it out any more than usual.
Well, I’m a girl. I’m in 8th grade, got my period in 5th. My doctor told me I probably would never grow. BOY was she wrong! I’m so happy I’m growing! Just a few weeks ago, my feet got bigger by a full shoe size. Then I grew a bit taller, and I still am. I drink a lot of milk every day now, and am trying my best to eat healthier. My school makes me exercise super hard and I love just running/playing sports or whatnot everyday anyway! I also love stretching, so I also do that too. I’m really getting good sleep in now also. I sleep at 8 and wake up at about 5:30 naturally. So 9 and a half hours of sleep. You think there’s any more (haha, as if I don’t have enough!) ways to increase my potential? When my mom was younger, she had a size 8. She’s 5’5". My feet are almost size 9 and a half now. So maybe that means I’ll grow taller than her? I mean, my older brother grew taller than my dad. My older sister, I think, maybe neglected what she did/does since she’s 18 and only 5’2" and a half, and I’m just growing haha. For my race my family is pretty tall. Sooo.. you think there would be any more I can do or am I doing just fine? Thanks!

I’m turning 16 this year and I’m only 5"8. I’m an Asian male and I’m not happy with my height. Is there anything I can do to help me grow taller like exercise or sleep or something? And do I need to it more of something? Drink more of something?
