Exercises to increase height?

[Saber_UK]

Hi,

I was looking to add a few inches, and ive come acrossa fair amount of sites that will tell you "secrets" of how to grow taller by doing certain exercises, or removing/adding certain things to your diet.

one such site is www.betaller.com ... it looks good but well, the way they are advertsing it is a bit dodgy, its a book they sell you, it costs almost $60! and they say its 60% off

i would think you guys would know the best... are there any ways to help growing?

some of you may consider me vain, i am only 17, and im 5"6...

i could just wait and see if i grow more over the next few years, but i posted a message like this before on the supplement board, and he said that you stop growing at 17..

Any help would be great.

Thank you

just wait and see if you catch another growth spurt. only other way that ive heard of (which wasnt exactly smart) was since this guys growth plates were fused, he had his femurs broken and spaced a bit apart and set with pins and rods. talk about a jackass.

dont buy into schemes that arent possible, understand the science and you will read right through the bullshit.

The dude that said you stop growing at 17 is wrong. Everyone is different. Like Nate said, you might have another decent growth spurt left.

Even if you don't, think about how much easier it will be for you to get huge than say, your friends that are over 6'. The same amount of muscle will make you look twice as big.

Hey that's bullshit! I'be been 6'3" since I was 14. How come everyone else gets to grow when they're 18-20 and I didn't get to? That's bullshit! Now, I'm mad.

Dude...u are 6'3 quit whining...

I am almost 6'2...19..hoping for one more...6:3/6'4 would be nice

yes most people r diff. some stop growing at 15 some 21 but thats odd shit. u usually stop growing at 19 or around there after that i dont think u r goin to get much taller, just a slower metabolism and more muscle mass and fat. if u 19 dont expect to b no 5'9"

I was barely 6'1" when I graduated High School(18), I grew to a little over 6'4" by the time I was 25.

Mebbe you're a freak and it happened early for you . Different peoples hormones kick in at different times.......

Ive been 6"3 since i was 14. now im 16 and like 6"4.

my cousin grew 7-8 inches between ages 18-22.
hes like 6"8 now. hes a freak tho. he has really really small feet, even at that height.

guys are better off being tall, agreed. except maybe if they are bbs who dont wanna look big but wanna look like a good bb.

for gals i dont think it much matters. theres something hot about a gal bein short and theres something hot about one being tall.
maybe i just like girls too much in general to judge this lol.

by age 17 99.5% of growth in height is done on average, FACT. Of course there are exceptions but you most likely arent gonna be one of them.. from 15 to 17 i grew 9 inches, im still 17 and 6'1, havent grown in about 6 months maybe i'll grow a bit more but i dont think i'll grow more then an inch.
