Hi all, Im a 19 year old male and I am currently 5ft 7, my dad is standing tall at about 6ft1-2 not quite sure and my mum is 5ft or 5ft 1. my little 13 year old brother is the same height as me, maybe it because im the eldest. however I was wondering if at this age it would be possible for me to gain 2-3 inches or possibly more. My dad is convinced I am going to grow but i think the chances are bleak.
Any suggestions in exercises, diets and supplements to take would be greatly appreciated.:
Thanks in advance

I'm 19 year old and 5ft7in as well, my dad stands at 5ft9in. I haven't grown since I was 15 (it sucks a lot). I want at least another 3 inches cause I always feel disadvantaged to my friends.

i always thought the oldest grew taller im in your situation but im the younger brother and im nowere my brothers height and my 16th birthday is in a couple weeks im running out of hope!!!!!!!

El classico I know exactly how you feel it sucks especially when you trying to jump for the basketball. Nickflames I dont think you should worry because a few of my friends had growth spurts at 16- 17 so theres every chance , I just wish I started at your age.
I also read some interesting questions posted on yahoo regarding late growth spurts and some had it at the age of 20.
Anyone on this forum can recommend any supplements and foods to take and exercise that aid growth?

Welcome my friend I hope you succeed in your mission.

What techniques are you looking at adopting?

thanks for the support monaug5. well at the moment I Tried sprint training but i need more info on how to actually do it. I also recently taken up basketball and I also play soccer. I dont think there very effective do you have any suggestions?
im also interested in streching but I cant find no material actually demonstrating the streches!!
I see you had successin increasing ur height, what techniques do you use?

nothing

Good Luck to all

Gene is a matter someone if you grew taller.....................

Hey, I'm no expert im only 13 3/4 and only 5 foot 1/2 inch but i would recomend niacin 100 mg(onetablet) on empty stomach, and take melatonin b4 u sleep, try doing intense excersises u do soccer that should help, work your body until your exhausted. Take multivitamins after full meals. Umm, I guess u could tilt your bed so the head of the bed is raised a little. Look for wat vitamins 2 consume, and what foods 2 eat GOOD LUCK MAN, I BELIEVE IN U!
