I’m a 19 year old male. Both my parents are fairly normal sized, my dad’s somewhat muscular, and not that fatty. I however, am 6’1" and weigh 145. No matter what I do I can’t seem to add any muscle mass. I did grow taller in the past year, but I still haven’t put on any weight.

Will I bulk up naturally if I keep eating healthy foods? My frame seems big enough to support alot more body mass than it currently is.

Also, should I be doing cardio exercises to help keep off extra body fat?

Thanks.

I’m 5’2 and im 16 yrs old, and am already taller than my parents. Im still the shorty in my school and i want to change that. Are their any exercises I can specifically do, to lengthen my height? or should i eat any specific foods to grow taller? I’m open to any suggestions.

I am 17 years old and I am 5 feet tall (I’m a girl). My mom is 5’2′ and my dad is 5’4”, my sister is 5’1 but she’s younger than me, I live a very healthy life (i’m a vegetarian) and I run 4.5 miles 4-5 times a week. I just feel so out of place because almost everyone is taller than me and people just HAVE to comment on my height! So I’m wondering, do you think there’s some hope (at least just an inkling of hope?) for me to grow..at least to my parents’ height?
fyi, i turned vegetarian a year ago, so it has nothing to do with the bovine growth hormones in beef.
i think i stopped growing when i was about…15 i think?

Hi, Im 16 and Im worried about y height.

Im male, and am 5 foot 5, I weigh 11 stone, I think about 155 pounds.

I have a really bad diet and I think thatmight have something to do with it, All i eat is fast food and junk.

I really want to be taller than my parents and all that.

Is it too late to change y diet, or has my body stopped growing at 16. Will starting being heallthy at 16 give me any more height?

Thanks.

I’m 5’4 and i wanna be taller….my parents are short but other people in my family are 5’11 and taller…..is there a way to grow taller?

Im 15 and male i want to grow faster and get pretty tall. Im like 5 foot 2 thats prettys mall for my age i want to know how to grow taller like may 6 and a and a bit my parents are around 5 6 both of them like what do i have to eat drink do to get tall fast and get to a goo height. also help with ladies too.

And also is it true that a male is usally taller than the mother

Okay, I’m a little desperate here.

I’m a 14 year girl, and I’m extremely short.
I’m about 155cms tall (5.1"), and I’ve never had a growth spurt. I’m starting to feel like it’s never gonna happen, and I seriously need one (as you can see).
And yes, I’ve hit puberty. I got my periods when I was 12, and I still haven’t grown dramatically. AT ALL.

My mum is 153cms/5.0" tall (I should say short), and my dad is about 160cms/5.2".

I know a lot of people say that your height is usually the same height as your parents, but I don’t believe that.
My cousin has short parents like mine, and he’s about 180cms/5.9".

Is there anything I can do to make me taller naturally? Anything I should eat? Any specific exercises I should do? And will I ever get my growth spurt?!

Help would be much appreciate! Thank you
[[My avatar's a guy because that's what I look like. None of the girl avatars look like me (in real life). ]]

I know it’s different for everyone, and it really depends on one’s genetics and all that other stuff, but when does a girl stop growing?
i got my period about a year ago (11 months)
and i’m really kinda short, and i want to grow more. when will i stop growing? is there still a chance that i can grow taller?
my parents are naturally short, and i’m about my mother’s height. my older sister is about 2 inches taller thant he both of us. please help me!!
thank you :]

Im 15YO and I have this lymph node on my right groin, it isn’t rock hard, it is very mobile, its not painful at all, its 1 cm in diameter. Its been there for about 3 or 4 years. Thats when I started losing weight and growing tall and getting thin. When I look in mirror, most of the time I cant see it pop out or anything. When it does show (very rarely) you can just barely see it honestly. I have to get glasses in order to see it. Im tall and lenky (6′ 3" and 175lbs.). My parents and friends have all told me to stop worrying and Im going to think myself into a cancer. My node on my left side is somewhat the same way except you cant see it as much as the right when you can see it in the mirror. It started to become visible a little bit the exact same time my right one did, the same day and everything. Im a hypacondriac and I freak out over every ache. Ive heard from other forums that this is normal and some nodes are more palpable and everyone has a node more visible than others.

what do i have to eat to grow my expected height?? i searched for other questions but i still dont get am i supposed to eat nutrition vitamins or what?? cuz i only grew like 2-3cm only since last year. Im 174-175cm and my friend is like 180 and hes the same age but a couple of months older. were both 13 what do i have to eat to reach my expected adult height? My parents arent tall my dad is about 2cm taller than me my moms side is all short but my dads side are pretty tall (5"11 max) my cousin is 16 hes like 6"1 im 13 and 5"8 or so how do i grow to my expected adult height? nutrition or vitamins which one?

im 17 and im only 5’3, i see people taking it around 5’7 complaining that they want to grow taller and to me that would be amazing if not a mircle if i could get that tall. My parents are really short my mom is 5′ and my dad is 5’3 as well so as for that fact that taking hgh might stunt my growth more than i actually might naturally grow, i dont that that would be too much of a factor…im a guy as well so i think that this would be worth it if it works because thats not even the average hieght of women…so im pretty much asking if it works and what are the possible negative affects

I’m only 5"6, I’m a guy, and I wanna grow taller.lol do stretching exercises could help me grow taller? My parents are about the same height as me and I’m already 18. Could it be genetic? or am I just short because I used to workout everyday when I was 14….I heard we’re not supposed to work out till 18…?

I’m a guy, I am 19 years old and I’m 5’4

My parents are around the same height, so I doubt I will get any taller.

Sometimes I wonder why my mom had to marry a a guy who’s shorter than the average guy, but not much I can do about that, nor would I ever dare say anything about that as I realize that would be wrong/rude/etc. But someone with English, Irish, Dutch and French heritage should be at least 6’0+

I am willing to do ANYTHING, ANYTHING to get taller. So I’m considering leg lengthening surgery, which is extremely painful and recovery can be up to a year, but I’m willing to do it. I looked it up and insurance will cover it. Problem is that supposedly some places won’t do it for people who are above 5’0, so I’m wondering if I’d even be allowed to do it?

I’m also wondering if other people would look down on me for doing it? Do you think it’s a good idea? Please be honest, thanks.

My parents keep telling me to do them, but do they really make you taller? Are there even any exercises to make you taller?

I’m 5’6, 14 y/o and 120 pounds

Hello, I am 19 years old

My posture is quite bad, but I always sit up straight now, in hopes of correcting it

I want to grow taller, by 10cm/4inches. Is this even possible?
How do would I do it?

No herbal supplements or anything

I just want to know of good exercises to do to grow taller (and possibly good food) by 4inches or even 2inches

Many thanks in advance for your advice/information
One year, or even less time would be good too!
sar11572′s advice about posture is helpful. Can anybody describe these back and abdominal exercises?

I am 3 – 4 inches taller than both parents. What does this mean?

DON’T SAY GENETICS BECAUSE A GIRL WAS TALL BORN TO A SHORT PARENTS. HOW DOES GENETICS EXPLAIN THAT????????

ANY NATURAL WAYS TO GROW TALLER AND GAIN MORE MUSCLES???
CUTE ANSWER ALEX

Now I know it mostly all about genetics but I think I still have a chance of growing because my uncle is the same height as my dad (5’8) and his wife is short and their kid turned out to be pretty tall so I know it’s possible to grow taller than your parents.

Anyways I’m 5’7 1/2 (5’8 with shoes on) and I would like to be at least grow another inch but I would really like to be 5’10 and up. I found some exercises that supposedly help you grow but I’m wondering what are the best vitamins to help support your growth?

Thanks in advance!
I forgot to add that my dad is 5’8 and my mom is 5’2
and I’m 17 so I’m still pretty young

I am 17 years old and at the moment I am 5’7 feet tall. Both my parents are 5’4. I have read a lot about increasing height and that its dependent on genetics. I just wanna ask if regular stretching and balanced diet can get me to 6 feet.
Please do suggest some of the things I should eat that may help me.

I’m around 10 years old (not going to give out my real age). I’m 5 feet which is a pretty decent height for my age, but since I’m Asian and my parents are short, I just know I’ll be short when I’m an adult. Will I be able to grow taller within 1 or 2 months if I keep on doing height exercises? And to those who did these exercises regularly, does it work? I hope to grow taller by 2 or 3 inches by 2 months. If you have any tips or experience with height exercises please put them in your answer and please put as much details as possible! Thank you! -also I’m not allow to buy anything on the internet, so I can’t buy the "Grow taller 4 idiots" guide.

I want to be grow taller. I beg with my friends that I will taller than them in two years. I’m 5’5 ft and 17. We actually wrote down the paper that so, and my signature. My parents are both short. But I believe I could grow more in the future, there are plenty of pills and stuff that i could try. Eating habits, sleeping, exercise and stuffs. I’m kind of optimistic, at least give them a try.
If Im not grow anymore, there is nothing worth to live! sigh
i always dream to be taller and stuffs.

I’m 16, almost 17 and i’m only 5’6-5’7. My brother’s 21 and is like 5’8 – 5’10. We both outgrew my parents. My mom is around 4’11 or something and my dad is like 5’4. How tall will I get up to? And how can I grow taller naturally? I don’t want any stupid pills or anything like that.
I’m also around 145 pounds. I use to be 172 freshman year which was 2 years ago.

I’m only 5’1" and at this age, I’m considered short plus if i’m to talk about genetic, both my parents esp. my father’s family has the history of tallness and big body build. Being the smallest and shortest in family depressed me…can any specialist give me some advice on what and how can i do to grow myself taller through special diet and fitness? I’m even I" shorter than my mum!

I really want to be 6 4′ or taller. Right now I am 5 11′ and just turned 15. I am east Asian and weigh 138 pounds. Both of my parents are 5 6. However my grandpa was 6 4′ and my great grandpa was 6 7′ on my moms side. What can I do to grow taller and how tall will I grow if I haven’t had a major growth spurt yet. I really want to be taller because I want to play college basketball. Any advice is really appereciated.

i am 14 and i think 4 "11" or something like that. Im always getting made fun of because of my height and girls just look at me like a cute little brother. What are things that can help me grow faster.
Also my parents arent that short and my brother who is 16 is taler then my mom.

I am 5’8 and i am trying to be a model. The necessity to be a runway model is that you atleast have to be 5’11. So i want to increase my height. Is there any possible natural or artificial risk free way to do so?If yes then please tell me. I am in a dire need of it. Thnx. PS. I am 20 year old.
Also, i m taller then my parents and my sister. I think i got that from my mother side of the family, because there are many taller people in that family.
