I'm 19 and only 5'6. I'm sure this has been asked a million times here but is there still time for me to get taller and if so how would I go about doing it naturally?

Why would you want to be taller anyway? You can work past most advantages that tall guys have over you.

And if you say girls are one reason, you can work on your rhetoric and charisma and taller girls will still go for you.

I'm 5'5" and I'll admit that that does suck. I'm attracted to girls that are shorter than me, or at least girls that don't tower over me. You can imagine how hard that can be.

Men stop growing around age 21... you have two good years left. But in the meantime, just watch what you eat and exercise.

It's useless. In these two years you can't really expect more than 1 inch. Major growth spurts are already over. While he's still young he should go to the clinic i mentioned earlier. The operation is done with profesionnals. There is really no other ways.

I don't have a problem with my height because I like Asian women, and they are not taller than me.

Don't go for girls that are taller than you, you will look stupid and short.

Man It's great being 5'9. Most girls average 5'5 and no more than 5'8 typically. Its awesome. And I've bulked up and now gotta cut during college which will be fuckin hard. Need to lose 15-20lbs and I'll be ripped.

Quite true. Height is usually only an advantage for reach and activities that require leverage like rowing and swimming. Sometimes it's an aesthetic bonus, too, but from experience I'd say people tend to place more priority on facial features and build/general fitness.

You'll notice MMA fighters come in a variety of sizes, as well as sports that require the movement your own bodyweight, such as gymnastics and parkour. Sprinters and weightlifters tend to be of average heights, if I remember correctly, something to do with strength in relation to the distance of movement and flexibility.

Just don't play basketball unless you're as good as Earl Boykins.

Out of curiosity, how much do you weigh and what are you aiming for with cutting? I'm still quite slim at just under 150lbs. I'd like to, in two or three years time, be up to 175lbs lean.

The featherweight division in MMA is 136 to 145 lb, although it can receive other names depending where, like Shooto where it's the lightweight division. But he also fought in the K1 HERO's middleweight division that in the US would be the lightweight.

1. calc your mid parental height (formula search via google)
2. get your growth chart
3. your ephyseal plates will close by age ~25. additional growth past age 19 is unlikely, but possible. the easiest way to do it is via growth hormone injections. naturally it would be just sports/food/working out (stress your bones/muscles)

I heard growth plates close much earlier than 25. Do you have any source for that info?

Learn to live with it man.

I'm 5'6 and whilst it has made being confident somewhat of a challenge... it is still achievable.

Besides, it is more impressive for a short guy to overcome his fear and become a buff, charasmatic little man.

Also, a lot of the prettier, taller girls have a thing for shorter men. Don't know why, but I've been hit on by more girls taller than me than I have girls shorter.

Also, its easier to look ripped as all hell. I've been lifting for just a few months and look proportionately the same as the fucking Hulk.
>> Anonymous
>>279194

for those with underdeveloped bodies/shorter stature, your growth plates typically close a little later. 25 would be about the latest.

what matters most is not final height, but overall physical body mass... measure your wrist size and compare it to the average.

actually you wouldn't be, because humans dont have a set amount of weight, they grow proportionately to their height. so you may be on the tall side, but you are obviously dumb as fuck
