Hi cybersun-ga, What you need is a stretching exercise. It is not one of those where you stretch your body standing up. You need extra help through weights stretching your legs or some other part of the body(while you are lying down on your back), along the length of your body. What you will achieve is the lengthening of your bones(mostly the legs) over a long period of time(say in about a years time, with continued stretching for atleast half hour everyday). An inversion table could help doing the same with the least amount of strain, while improving your back flexibility and posture. But do not attempt a complete inversion, since it could cause hemorrhage in your head. You could also do swinging on a bar(thrusting your legs out as you swing out),but you need enough strength on your hands and is not very suitable for above medium body weight. Games such as basketball should also help a lot in increasing the height. Inaddition to exercise, you could take supplements that could help bone growth(calcium with vitD,phosphorus, magnesium,zinc), to make sure you grow healthier and stronger bones. Note: Once you increase your height, there is no way you will be able to reduce it, other than through a major surgery. Disclaimer: This is not a medical advise and should not be taken as such. Not responsible to damages/injuries due to following the advise without additional medical supervision/diagnosis. Regards ldavinci-ga |

Cybersun, Other than improving your posture, there's little you can do. Women stop growing at 22 and men at 25. Since you are already 24, most of your growing is done. The vast majority of your growth occurs in puberty. You might have probably do something about your hight much earlier than puberty, but even then your hight is highly determined by your genes if you have been well nurished throughout your childhood and beyond.

Hello There- One of the most important things that people fail to remember is good posture. I always felt a lot shorter than I actually was, because due to excessive work at a computer sitting at a desk all day, my shoulders were always rolled forward and my spine, curved. A great solution is ShouldersBack. www.shouldersback.net Check it out. |
