Height Gain?
Posted: 04-10-06 20:36pm

Right now i'm 16 and a half years ago measureing at 6 foot and 1 8th.
I want to reach the height of 6" 3' - 6" 5' before july.

Any suggestions of how I can reach that goal? The only thing i've done is have a pill that contains 16% daily value of calcuim and about a gallon a milk a day.

What can I do to really gain height?

You can't do anything to gain height, it's genetics. You can appear taller if you stand up straight, but that's about it.


If you're meant to be 6'3"-5" you'll grow that high, if not, no biggie since there are alot of guys who wish they could be the height you are now.

Not exactly true. Some recent test have shown you can try special stretches that wil lactually increase the thickness of the vertibrey of your back bone to where you could gain an extra 1-2 inches.
The special height hormones have been proven to work but you have to go on a very tight diet eating only certain food plus the supplements are really expensive.

You're 16, chill out, you have plenty of years left to grow. You should be more concerned about school and having fun while you're still young.

I know that lol...


Just to let you know I was 5" 11½' last month. I'm only asking if there are ways to grow even faster? The reason why is because this girl I like is also 6" 0' , but I think she wants someone who is at least one inch taller than her. Thats why I want to gain a couple more inches.

Haha oh.. Well i'm 6ft and i'm female.. I don't know how her mind works, but if you're her height now or almost there, it shouldn't matter. Plus most girls know guys finish growing later than we do.

If you were like 5'6" or 5'7" it might be awkward, but at 5'11 1/2" or 6' you should be good to go as you are :-p
anywho, if she's that superficial that you wouldn't have a chance unless you were like 6'3", you don't want a girl like that anyways.

Good luck! Teenage girls are a pain in the butt :-p I should know, I used to be one haha

I actually phrased it a little wrong, she just wants a guy tall.

Her father is 6" 4' wow. But i'm doing pretty good because she is 7 months older than me, meaning through age wise i'm ahead of her in height. She use to be like 5" 11' 6 months ago.
