Re: How can I grow an inch?

I also wish I was taller, but for a real reason. I play volleyball and am 6'3. Most people that play college however are >6'5... although I am not a hitter and height isn't something that I'm worried about, I would like to be up there just to have bragging rights. =[

This.
I SHOULD be playing varsity, but I'm 5'10", so obviously, I am a libero. The problem is, I just had to go to a university that has 4 liberos. I either need to grow to like, 6'2" (I'm working on increasing my vertical right now as well, jumping 34" atm) so that I can be a hitter, or kill all the other liberos so that I can play. Or they can just disappear somehow. Either way, I don't get to play and it's pissing me off.

kmay can I have your height please?

Re: How can I grow an inch?

if you squat with heavy ass weight, not some pink dumbells that your granny could lift, it will compress your spine but its only temporary.

then again the crazy strong guys i know are all under 5ft8 lol

Re: How can I grow an inch?

I'm 6'3 ish area. Maybe more. Definitely not less. I'm just barely 16 though.
6'7-10 growth chart projections FTW.

It's entirely genetics though. It matches my genetic weight in the stomach area. .....

Re: How can I grow an inch?

My mother is 5 foot, my father 6'3...so it was really a crap shoot for me. I stopped growing at 5'4...but I'm female so I'm just about average, I guess. I wouldn't have minded being like 5'7, though.

Re: How can I grow an inch?

Wouldn't recommend stretching your spine for height unless you're into hurting yourself.

Also, weightlifting doesn't ever stunt growth; it stimulates growth hormone production; and the more intense the exercise, the more hormones will be released. What, do people actually believe doing heavy squats would compress their spines? o_o

Maintaining a healthy lifestyle (good nutritional uptake and regular cardiovascular exercise) while weightlifting would help Sephi's cause. Very general, but those are ultimately the only two things a person could do, really.

Heavy lifting at a young age damages your growth plates.... (Probably ninja'd but I didn't read previous posts)

6'3" here

Third time I have to mention today about how Rubix has us beat...

I really doubt it. You may be able to find communities of people online preaching that same popular notion but it's no better than a rumour without there being legitimate, replicated research to back it up. On something like this I'd need to see the paper before believing it... I mean, it could easily have been an article on people of a certain age with a certain deficiency lifting a certain exorbitant amount of weight in a certain way a certain number of times, over a certain time frame, having a certain mild effect, passed on with only the first and third preliminary details by a bodybuilding enthusiast, then exalted as enlightenment by everyone it reached, eventually becoming conventional wisdom to internet surfers.

Re: How can I grow an inch?

shorter people tend to be better than taller people at lifting weights hence the rumor

Shorter females = much cuter and much more attractive. In my opinion anyway. I'm 5'6", maybe 5'7" and I haven't grown at all in the past year so I guess I'm done. My GF is 5'2"ish which I love <3

Re: How can I grow an inch?

Despite being ~5'11" for the past year and a half

You think that's bad.

I'm 5' 11.75". Quarter of an inch shy.

You don't know pain.
