NOTE: For those who don't know. I'm only 15 years of age but I had an x-ray on both my legs twice and my growth plates have shown to be fused. None of this is natural growth, imo. And I am male.

12.8.08
Started stretches and exercises.

[]===============================================================================[]

31.8.08
I have just measured, 20th day on the gettallerforfree stretches, time is 10pm here and i grew 1.2 cm

GLAD TO SEE ME MAKE PROGRESS! V.NICE!

im quite certain that i grew (or it could've been better posture ) cuz i like measured x2000 times last time.

I am officially happy.

[]===============================================================================[]

14.9.08
It's been like 14 days since last time I measured and I'm like 0.2cm taller. Just measured now, at 11pm and I'm 2mm taller. Very nice huh? - .-'

Okay, well I have now finished my Stage 1 and Stage 2 exercises, and I'm starting my Stage 3 exercises tomorrow. Wish me luck.

Note: Up until the 27th of September, I have been disgustingly lazy and thus have not shown any results. On the 28th, I started a new routine, the shinbone routine, doing that everyday with my stretches.

[]===============================================================================[]

5.10.08
Grew 0.1cm (1mm) lmao. Better than nothing I guess. So I grew by a millimetre in 1 week since I started my shinbone routine and swimming with my stretches.

[]===============================================================================[]

31.10.08
I have been lazy with my shinbone routine but then I started properly and consistently since around 2 weeks ago. I am really happy to say that I have grown 0.4cm. Time is 10:30pm. So in 2 weeks I have grown 0.4cm from the shinbone routine.

Note: I am now measuring once at the end of every month so that I don't get demotivated. The next time I'll measure will be on the 30th of November. Wish me luck.

Congrats, once you grew even taller, you should go and laugh at whoever said you can't grow anymore.

yes luagh and laugh and laugh again.

that would make you grow another 2 cm in 20 days.

Great. COol. Dont b too negative and try all kinds of things and u ll continue growing. dun listen to the doctors abt height growing too much. they r bullshit

Congratz! this should be inspiring to the members with closed growthplates

5foot4er, whats your daily routine?


and congratulations!

thx guys

5foot4er, whats your daily routine?


and congratulations!

my daily routine was really.. not consistent. like i changed it almost everyday or i wouldnt do some things. but i kept up my stretches in the morning and at night (but i missed 2 days.. cuz i was depressed at that time cuz i didnt see results ).

so i did intense stretches at morning and night, and in afternoon i would do "Sprint 8 Workout" by running or cycling. i alternate days when i would sprint and bike. and i usually hang as well. and sometimes if i remember, i would do hindu push ups.. and i did some kicks some days.. . so MAINLY i would do stretches, hang and sprint 8 workout

Hey, if u grow some more keep us updated. u ll b a 'closed growth plate' inspiration! good luck mate. do hardcore cycling, stretch it as much as possible lyk me. I did 19 inch n now i can nearly do 22 inch, (I use the gym bicycle which has a sit height indicator ) n my leg has grown in the milimetres. heheh.... i tink my legs r gonna b exteremely fused or something but still i womt gif up. i suggest u try

i do intense cycling and when i raise my seat too much, my ass, groin and legs kill

so i keep it on "bearable" height

also i dont get why no one here on these forums get xray to see if their plates have closed. initially i thought everyone here had their plates closed/close to closed, but until i saw some of these replies.. seems like im the only one with a "definite" closed plate (except for bigt)

Edit: btw, went to surgeon recently to see about the "leg lengthening surgery" and NO i was not going to do it. i just wanted to see some information from the actual surgeon himself. so he said that even if i wanted to do the surgery, he wouldn't allow it cuz im normal with normal legs, and after the surgery i could get one leg longer than the other, infections, etc. this surgery is mostly done on ppl with disproportionate legs or problem with their legs so.. yea, he said height isn't everything. but he was also SO FRIGGIN LIKE DEMOTIVATING. he said in no way could i increase height by exercise etc cuz my bones are fused and im an adult now... he could've said "you could try doing exercise and it might help" but he was like "No. it's impossible"...

so yea

1. Don't get leg lengthening surgery
2. don't believe doctors
3. ...idk
