Is there any way you can grow taller?

I know genetic plays a big role in this but, is there any other way you can grow taller? I think drinking milk works too.

Any one know anything else?

I read that if ur under 16 and run a whole lot. It could hinder your growth. I think that may have hindered my growth a bit.

I used to run cross country in the mornings and do soccer in the afternoon to the point where my knees felt like there was air inside. I asked my gym teacher, and he had no clue, but now that I think of it, they may have been swollen.

At first I was like, thats the stupidest thing I've ever heard, but then I thought about it. Have you ever seen a cross country runner over 5'10"? I sure as hell haven't. lol!

Umm yeah there were a crap load of cross country runners who were really tall in my high school. Look at the olympic runners they are all really tall. What stunts yours growth is lifting too much and not eating right.

NO! there is NO way you can grow taller.

it's ALL genes.

the ONLY way you could grow taller is if you started taking supplements at the age of two.

Height is genetic, nothing you can do about it.

Weightlifting doesn't stunt growth, nor does running.

It is not a case of "those guys are short because they run a lot", it's more "those guys run a lot because they're short". Shorter guys carry less mass around and so are more efficent runners.

Dude, thats cuz they're all black, duh. lol!
Most black American people are not that tall. Tallest people come from the Dinaric Alps region (former Yugoslavia - Split through Podgorica), Eastern Baltics (Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia), as well as a few Dinka tribes in Africa. The tallest Western Europeans are the Dutch, but they are slightly behind the groups mentioned above. Ever wonder why there are so many NBA basketball players from a place like Lithuania? There are only 3 million people in that country and many are not even ethnic Lithuanians. If you visit you will see the freakish height of many of the inhabitants.

Spanish, Italians, French, etc. tend to be the shorter of the Europeans. The native and mixed people from Latin America are really short. From what I hear there are certain areas of China where the people are somewhat tall.

In hell. I'm Satan's lover.
I've run on the canada cross country team once (3 years ago when it was in France) and ontario (OFSAA) cross country team twice. I'm atleast 6'1 and I've almost dehydrated myself, swollen, pulled muscles. I'm still growing so don't worry about xc (I highly reccomend stretching though!)

As for added height, I have really subtle boots that i wear sometimes. They look normal/stylish but they easily boost me to 6'3 or 4. Best and easiest thing to do.
 

Peace and Quiet

If you currently have too many women chasing you, calling you, harassing you, knocking on your door at 2 o'clock in the morning... then I have the simple solution for you.

Just read my free ebook 22 Rules for Massive Success With Women and do the opposite of what I recommend.

This will quickly drive all women away from you.

And you will be able to relax and to live your life in peace and quiet.
