How do i increase my weight?
18 year old skinny ambitious man. 5'11, WANTS to be 6'2 feets.

I know that the main growth spurts happen in young age but i'm still young and i want to do my best. Does cardio has a role? Is heavy weightlifting still benefical for uhh.. height growth?

Pic related; Look how it's badass to be tall, you have niggers suck your dick.

Essentially, you have two growth spurts during your adolescent/teenage years. The first growth is around 13/14, and the second is around 18/22...I doubt you'll reach 6'2, though...maybe 6'

Im also 5'11" I really dont mind being average height. Im 20 years old and have been the same height since I was like 16. The sooner you feel comfortable with your height the better you will feel.

That's right it's a decent height but i'd like to squeeze out a few extra inches, so i can look down at most people.

Well, to my knowledge, you have some chances at this, but you'll probably only reach 6'1 with these things combined.

First of all, working out will make you somewhat taller to my knowledge, has to do with calcium deposits in the joints and shit increasing or something. So there's one. In addition, you'll probably get a growth spurt in the next 4 years or so.

After that, dress like Spike Spiegel/Lupin III/Jigen and wear a pair of spiffy ankle boots with a 1 inch heel.

Platform shoes, like Tom Cruise, right? nah, it would show that i care too much about my height.

Wikipedia says exercise can increase Growth Hormone Levels.
What kind of exercise, it's not specified.
What do you think? Cardio? Plyometrics, Stretchings, Weightlifting..?

Height is genetic.

you cannot alter it really.

The only thing you can do to change it is stunt your growth by living in a third world country.

He meant fashionable boots with heels that you can buy in a store, not special made "elevator" shoes with hidden lifts for midgets.

Speaking of which, you're far more pathetic than Tom Cruise. You're (above) average height for an American male, yet you're asking how to get taller. Best of all, you don't want anyone to know how bad you want to be taller.

I'd say insecurity is your problem, not height.

I'm around 5'9" and I'd do almost anything to grow to 5'11" - 6'. In truth, it's the only area of my body I'm a little insecure about. Frustrating as hell to see everyone else this age simply striking lucky with genetics, treating their bodies like shit and still flying toward (and over) the 6' mark.

5'6, stop bitching.

I've heard you stop growing by 25 but personally I feel you cap out around 18-19

basically when you seem to stop growing (after a growth spurt) that's when you stop.

I guess you could hang around some tall people and stay in rooms with tall ceilings. Also try sleeping with 15 year old boys who are growing, that might do the trick.

>> Somewhat !rK4K86e49M
I'm 176 cm (fuck your weird measuring system) and as such on the lower end of the height scale for average men. I don't mind it at all. I prefer being short and looking proportionate than being lanky and look like a freak. The more obviously tall you get, the more stupid you will look with muscle (unless you grow proportionally sideways and then you're just a giant and will look stupid no matter what you do).

121215 here. I'm 6'3", 21 years of age. Only 183 lbs and skinny.

being tall:
-requires way more food to gain weight and sustain
-fucks your proportions, your shoulders are narrower, your chest is thinner, arms and legs are lankier
-fewer clothes look good on you, no matter what you appear stretched out.
-you're worse at gymastic type exercises and agility, it's harder to do the things that shorter, more compact atheletes can
-live shorter lives
-harder to gain muscle.
-thinner neck
-hitting low hanging objects more, harder to fit in cars
-you have to bend over to kiss girls
-movement is more tiring, awkward, and harder on the limbs

and the worst part:
everyone is below you physically, so everyone looks like children. people look a lot better/more their age when you squat down to their eye level i've noticed. when I was 5'5" adults looked like adults. now they look like dwarves

im only one inch shorter than you but heres why being tall is awesome:
-requires way more food to gain weight and sustain
you can eat more thats a good thing.
-fucks your proportions, your shoulders are narrower, your chest is thinner, arms and legs are lankier
bullshit arnie was 6'1.5 and he pulled it off, don't blame being tall on having narrow shoulders.
-fewer clothes look good on you, no matter what you appear stretched out.
again depends on body structure, in any case its better than being very wide or being very short.
-you're worse at gymastic type exercises and agility, it's harder to do the things that shorter, more compact atheletes can
this is valid, but only makes it more impressive, pullups at 150lbs aren't nearly as awesome as pullups at 200lbs
-live shorter lives
women live longer than men anyway, I'd rather enjoy my life and not worry about death
-harder to gain muscle.
Harder to gain fat, may not be able to bulk as easily but will be able to attain a greater overall strength in many cases. enhanced reach will serve well in fights.
-thinner neck
Do deadlifts or neck exercises
-hitting low hanging objects more, harder to fit in cars
valid point but at 6'3'' I don't think you should have too many problems
-you have to bend over to kiss girls
Most guys have to do that, and they look up to you, it's romantic imo.
-movement is more tiring, awkward, and harder on the limbs
I wouldn't agree with this, the majority of world class atheletes are 6' and above (aside from gymnasts)

the last point is silly, 6'3'' realy isn't THAT tall in my uni I'd say there were at least 2 people per class taller than that.

Be a bad ass.

If you're small and strong you have the Highest probability of making Spec Ops.

Less weight to move around in endurance exercises, and if you can carry the pack in the ruck, you're good. Also less food required to maintain yourself if you're ever in a situation where you need to survive.

Smaller target as well.

I enjoy being tall (6'5"/198cm, 170lb/77kg) for the most part. I guess I could complain about not being to buy any car I want. If I want to buy a car, I have to try them on first. It's also harder to find clothes (36 inch inseam? You try finding it with a 32 inch waist. It sucks) plus I have knee problems but that's also because my mother's knees were horrible. Sometimes I think I look a bit ridiculous because my legs are so goddamn huge, but meh.

It's vaguely annoying that everyone says "Holy shit you must love basketball" or "Wow you must be good at basketball!"

No. I fucking hate basketball. I have since 4th grade. Yes I can dunk, but I suck at it, because I hate it and I've never had much motivation to practice or play.

But I do rock at ultimate frisbee.

I also don't like that I can't really date shorter girls (anything shorter than 5'5" is a bit awkward) It's really nice to hug a girl who's 5'10" or taller. Ooooh such a treat!

I'm 6'1 and I wish I was shorter.

Whenever I'm looking forward, I stub a toe or knock something over accidentally.

Whenever I'm making sure not to bump into anything with my huge feet, I hit my head on something.

I would routinely hit my head when getting off the bus in high-school.

My feet and hands are fucking huge, so finding a good pair of shoes or gloves is a fucking chore.

My room is rather small, and I can't sleep in a bed smaller than a double (on an angle, no less).

i'm a woman, i stand at 5'8 - not growing anymore thankfully. i don't have a height preference but to most women i've met, there's no such thing as too tall unless you're 7+ feet. however i don't feel that 5'5-5'8 is too short either, it really depends on how the guy acts, how confident he is with himself etc. anyway i don't really think that a man's height would ever be a deciding factor in his relationship with a girl. if it was then well that girl is a stupid bitch.

OP here, thank you for the advices. so far here are the possibilities:
-Attaching heavy weights on my ankles several hours a day so my shins can stretch (i'm not so sure..)
-HGH (exercises (heavy squatz), proper rest, proper nutrition) HGH stands for Human Growth Hormone, wich i plan to produce naturally from my body and not take in supplements because it seems dangerous to health.

I'm happy with these, but anyone got like.. ancient secret oriental methods to grow taller? If not, keep posting about how tall/short you are.
>> Anonymous
>>122827

Sorry to break it to you, but outside of paying mucho dorrah to have some whacko doctor break your shins and stretch them apart, you can't really gain significant height.

Keep exercising and doing squats to promote natural growth via HGH by all means, you could get taller naturally with age anyways. It is mostly dependent on genetics, but random happenings of extra height growth do occur.

You could also try yoga to make sure you have perfect posture, could queeze out another half-inch to an inch.

Basically, don't start obsessing about it. You're 5'11 which is plenty tall for anything. Other than being a giant. Thank your ass that you're not an actual midget or disfigured in some way.

You could be 5'7 like me and have to use a crapton of charm and work out like a bastard to score with
decent looking chicks.

You seriously want to be taller? Leg extensions are the only thing that can significantly increase your height after your bones have fused and you've matured.

But if you'd seriously consider those, well, that seems rather pathetic. I'm a just under 5'00'' female, and sure, I want to be taller, but you don't see me complaining, because it's pointless. I happened to have very awesome but very short parents, and you gotta live with what you got.

Height does not make you more attractive, smarter, or more successful. All it does it help you see in crowds, but being short helps you actually get through the crowd.

Besides, good things come in small packages. Being too big makes you awkward. I don't know why OP is complaining; 5'11'' is a perfectly acceptable height to be.
