Im 19 years and 5 foot 8, i play sports and height helps a little in the sport i play. are there any foods or exercises i can do to make me an inch or two taller in a healthy way

I’m only 16, turning 17 soon, but I’m probably one of the shortest guys at highschool; I would only like to know if there is a way to help my body grow taller, faster.

What should I eat?
Are there any strectching exercises I can do or sports I can practice (except swimming because I can’t unfortunately)?
Does running help me grow?

Thanks a lot

Do NOT say pills, nor genetics-95% of tall adults have parents 4 inches or more shorter than them.
I would only like exercises and/or stretches. No sports. Not milk. Just stretches and exercises.

Hey guys. So I’m 16 year old Asian guy. I’m 5’6 (168 cm) and I weight 143 pounds (65 kg).
I think I’ve stopped growing like 2 years ago. I measure my height every month and I haven’t seen any differences… Did my growth plates fused or what? I think it’s kinda impossible at age of 16.

My height is a joke. All my friends are like towers and I’m always embarrassed with my height. Girls I like are higher than me.

I love basketball but since I’m so damn short it’s hard to play with giants. Oh, and I could never reach the rim.

AND THE WORST THING. People sometimes make jokes about my height and that Asians are short… That drives me nuts.

5’9" – 6’0" would be a perfect height.

Please help me guys And please don’t write stuff like "eat more and do sports" because that’s what I heard from my doctor and I’m quite disappointed. So how can I grow any taller naturally?

Im A 12 year old(turning 13 in june) and im only 145 cm tall. 145cm=57.09 inches. I want to grow taller and I want suggestions on how like daily exercise things I should do or sports I should play. My goal is 155cm. Any quick way to grow taller? Oh yeah and I think im hitting puberty(look at my other questions ) so will this give me a boost? please help, thanks. Will choose best answer within a day.
what food/drinks are good?

So I’m korean, grew up in Canada and i have been boxing for about 1 year. Growing up, i was athletic and participated in many sport teams and i noticed for almost all sports i was the only asian. (Sprinting, American Football, Boxing). I like boxing, I have fire in my belly and i really want to succeed in it. (Even though i dont want to become a professional). I’m tired of asians getting looked down upon.

I’m short and on the muscular side, but everyone underestimates me, never sees me as a challenge, and tells me I have a inevitable disadvantage due to my race. I hate this, and in any physical sport im the only asian who stands a chance against all the taller whites/black kids. If I tell them I do boxing everyone laughs and says i should go join some karate shit like all the other asians.

So are asians naturally unathletic? Even in boxing history, most champions are black, few white and the only famous boxer who is asian is Manny Pacquiao. Manny seems to be the only exception to this. Is this true?

How do i know if i have talent or if i stand a chance? I dont wanna be doing a sport which im just gonna suck at.

I am chinese. I am 13 and a half years old. I am 5 feet 4 inches and 160 cm. I have developed pubic hair and is starting to develop underarm hair. My parents keep saying that I’m not going to grow any taller and im pretty scared. I do a lot of sports like running and swimming. Will I grow taller?

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?

im 5ft5 n im under 16,i want to be more active and healthier. is there any sports or exercises that would help except for basketball? thanks

I am 4’9 and i want to grow taller for the sports i play. Is there a easier way to grow without waiting?
EASY PLEASE

Well, I’m 15 and a full B, maybe a C on a good day, and I was wondering if there’s anything I can do to make my breasts grow. Any exercises, maybe? I wanted to grow to a full C. I just thought that, if I play a lot of sports, I can grow taller, so there’s gotta be some exercises that I can do to grow bigger too, right? Help please!

I am 15-year-old male and this month I started to pass 3 hours without eating nothing everyday, just because I don’t want to be fat when I grow up.
I am naturally skinny now, I’m 5’7" tall and I weigh 117 pounds, but if this thing of passing 3 hours without eating becomes a habit, I’ll be even skinnier than I am.
I just want to know if I’m skinny as a teenager, will I be slim or skinny and toned as a 21-year-old? Because my father was skinny when he was a teenager but know he is 40 years old and is overweight.
It’s because I want to still be skinny and toned as an adult. I don’t want to become overweight like my father.
But I’m thinking that nowadays we practice sports and take care of how we eat so…
I go jogging and work out.
Short.Stuff: that made me laugh a lot!

im under 14 and i started puberty(im not fat or anything) and im 5’2 1/2 and i want to grow taller. is it possible cause i heard some people say that u cant grow taller after 2 years of having puberty. does swimming help? how about sports? plz tell me! thxs!

I’m a guy that’s 5’3", and stopped growing. I am unaware of any advantage (socially) short guys have. They are at a disadvantage in many sports, and you get more attention if you’re taller. Studies show taller people are naturally more attractive. If you’re short, people make fun of how short you are, and you’re not taken seriously.

People will say height doesn’t matter when dating, but I see it actually does. Many girls have chosen taller guys over me even if I’m taller than the girl. There are not many girls that are shorter than me, and a majority of the girls that are shorter still prefer much taller guys. I can’t see any advantage a short guy has.

I understand that I’ll always be at a disadvantage, and just hope there’s a girl that really doesn’t care about it. I understand that I can change my attitude about being short and be confident, but that won’t change the way I’m still seen or treated will it? In the end I’ll still be short, and "naturally" feel less attractive.

Hi I am 13 turning 14 next month. The problem I find is that I am too short. I am a boy by the way. I am 5’3 and like everyone is taller than me in school. Well, most. I did hear about exercising that would help you grow taller. I bike and I might do some running/jogging soon. I do not like to play basketball also. I was just wondering if you guys have any suggestions on growing taller. Any tips and such. I really want to grow taller.
Are there any sports besides basketball that will help growing taller?
And I always wondered if biking, walking, and jogging would make you shorter because you put weight on your legs… hehe. It’s probably not true… right?

Have you grown inches taller after puberty after doing certain stretches or recreational activities or sports? If so, describe the stretches in detail and list the activities.

What exercises can increase your height?

I am a midget and i am 5 feet tall or maybe 4’11 and i am almost 14 years old in 3 months. How can i grow taller at least to be 5’3 especially in a fast way . HELP thanks in advance .( I can’t play sports so not sports)

i have turned seventeen a month ago, and i have very small boobs. even though i have some bras that i can wear as 70B, i am – all naturally, without push up, an A cup.

I was a late bloomer, with 13 i was still entirely flat chested, and only at 14 did my boobs start growing. however, they never grew like other people suddenly g go one breast cup size larger..they have grown so slow that i cant tell if they are still growing or not.

I also got my period at 14, which is considered quite late in the 21st century, but my gyno said this is also due to the reason that i have been doing sports and working out quite excessively while growing up, i have now become a lot less active. i am 1.63 cm tall and weigh 48 – 50 kg, i am "petite", but with optimal proportions. my mom does NOT have small boobs, not huge ones, just average, like, a fully filled B cup.

for over a year i have been kind of cheating by always wearing push up bras appearing to have a cup size bigger, like, B cup. but i have stopped.

i do not want to have bigger boobs because i feel like i dont attract guys, not at all. i broke up with my last boyfriend ( of only 3 weeks )four weeks ago, with who i did not sleep with, but am now together with my dream guy, who i have already slept with several times, but i have always kept my bra on because i am not confident about showing my small boobs he has never implied that i should take the bra off, so its not an issue, but i really would like to know if i can expect them to grow or not

thank you!!!

Im 11 and 5’2. I already had my growth spurt for puberty and wondering if i am going to get any taller? If not, are there any ways to increase the height ? I really want to grow taller for sports. Best answers gets 10 points [:
i had my period in 4th grade and fyi i dont want to look tall i want to be tall.

Im 13, and Im tall, about 5 ’7. But most people in my family have grown early, and most are average sized. Im an athlete, but I know how important it is to be big to be successful in sports. Chances are I’ll be 5 ’10, 5 ’11, maybe 6 foot. But in my sport, baseball, the best players mostly taller than that, or at least it couldn’t hurt to be taller.

I know I’m going to grow up to be average size, at least. But I’d love to be 6 ’1 someday. Im very active, and my diet is so-so. My dad is a 5 ’10, 5 ’11, my mom is 5 ’7, my sister is 5 ’7, and my brother somehow shot up to almost 6 ’3.

I’ve heard rumors of how to get taller, but I want to do it naturally, such as, a better diet, or specific exercises throughout my growing years. I’ve heard that stretching releases human growth hormones, so could that help me grow? I do yoga and poladies both once a week. Should I do more? What else can I do?

hi i am 15 years old and turning 16 next month, i am 165cm tall since my last birthday in august last year and havent grown much since then. what could i do grow taller (E.g do more sports in the sun…) nd what could i doo to gain weight fast?

Hey im 15 year old male and am around 5’7 – 5’8

My growth spurt started a while ago and i recently started to notice that i havent been growing as fast and much as i use to…is there any foods or sports that can help me grow? Thanks

Any tips and info will be well appreciated

Well, I am 13 years old and 5’1. I weigh 92 pounds…how do I get taller? I’ve already gone through puberty and all of that. I’ve been drinking a cold glass of milk every night and going to bed at 9:30-10PM. I went through puberty quite early–the middle of my fifth grade year. I know this is just another stereo type, but I’m asian and they say its harder to become taller when you’re asian? Anyway, I want to grow taller without wearing wedges or high heels…naturally without taking any prescription/medicine/acids or punctures. What do you suggest for someone my age to grow taller? I’m planning on playing more sports during the summer. I’ve never gone out of the house that much–my mom never has the time to take me and my dad isn’t well..in contact anymore. So I have NEVER been to any amusement parks–including Disneyland nor have I played many sports outside of my P.E. class. I’m signing up for badminton and it starts next week, but its only for 20 days. My mom is planning on signing me up on volleyball during the summer, but like I said only for a few weeks. I don’t really exercise…once I eat my belly is pretty full but when I sleep all that belly fat goes away in the morning (mostly). P.E. classes at school help too, since we run twice a week around a really big track. I want to get taller then my mom, who is 5’3 and 42. I want to be at least 5’5-5’7 by the time I get out of highschool. I want to be at least 5’2 or 5’3 in two years. Thanks
