Front snap kicks tend to cause pains in the knee caps, straight leg kicks and side swings don't, ironically, you are supposed to do more front snaps than anything else so my advice would be to go a little bit easier on the kicks so as not to hurt yourself.

Side swing? My ignorance is kicking in... Like, standing with feet parallel then just swinging it outward to the side?

If that's what you're referring to (which I'm assuming it is), sweet. I've been doing that to trim down a bit so I stop looking like an effin pear in jeans. But if it works for 2 batters, awesome. (I've noticed after I do that, my shinbones are in pain a little and tingle slightly)

i think it would be better if u do kicks that work in all directions, best are front kick-kciking in front w/ ball of foot, back kick-just kick backwards make sure u imagine hitting someone w/ ur heel, n then sidekick-kick sideways with "blade"-don't know technical term but thats what i call it, or heel of foot...i would focus more on front kick-don't do snap kick where ur hitting with the top part of ur foot, i found that it doesn't stretch ur legs out as much, but with a front kick think of pushing someone back as u kick with the ball of ur foot....its actually would be better to join martial arts or something so u don't get bored from just kicking in ur house, i do taekwondo/karate n i think thats what made my legs a little longer than last yrs since i did grew a bit, but im still sticking to it to see how much i can grow if i amped the intensity a bit

Yeap Yeap. I think you are on the same frequency but let me affirm.

I am talking about the one where you hold against a chair or something, and then standing on one feet while the other swings left and right for X times. If you are talking about that then you can pop the champagne.

I actually only knew that as a grow taller exercise, not by any means an un-pear exercise, anyways you said you look like a pear in jeans, why so ?

But Is It permanent?
Like if you stop trying to improve your posture, will you be the same height again like you was before?
What do you exactly mean by improving your posture?
Can you explain me *-)

Thank youu

It is permanent,

The main thing is to straighten your back and not slouch.

Hi i stumbled across this page searching on the net and it seems to be the only place were real people claim results in growing taller... (but if there is a supplement that people can agree on works please do tell)
I am 6.3 in the mornings 6.2 and sometimes 6.1 and a half on other days.
BTW i am a basketball player so every inch counts.

Yup, that IS what I meant!

And, in girl terms, looking like a pear means smaller on top than at the bottom... having wide-ish hips.

So yay for doing a 2-for-1 exercise!
