Hmmmm. Height!!

Some years ago, I asked my mom for the reason of my shortness. She told me that I did not pay "owo idagba soke". (Money for tall height). She assured me that I'll grow taller when I pay. That was how I saved part of my lunch time money in school. I gave her the money with all seriousness and she promised to take it to where my height will be adjusted. I was so happy. . I became confused when she used my money to buy dried fish for soup! I was so angry. She later told dad about it and I became a laughing stock!!! Anytime I remember it, I will just smile.


Even when I started driving, police will stop me and ask..."How old are you"? "Kekere, you dey see front so?

This is a question that many have asked yet got no answer. So, I'm asking again.

I'm 5'3 inches tall at 20 years 5 months and I would like to be at least 6 feet tall. Is that possible at all?

Doctors and Nurses please reply. Also if you grew tall after 20, you can share your experience, diet etc

Agreed, but if u have said u were 4'9 at 14 and 6'9 at 19 it would have be alot easier to believe.
But after 20 years it's not possible unless it's an ailment

Well, bro I'm no expert but when I did my research I found out that lifting weights while standing compresses your spine making you less taller than you already are. I remember when I was trying to get my vertical up,I did a lot of exercises that involved carrying weights, my vertical did increase but I noticed that I lost like 2 inches of height,so I stopped doing it.

The answer is no. You won't grow any taller than your current height.

As someone has put it upthread, the part at the end of your long bones called the epiphysis, where most of your growing goes on during puberty has fused completely.

Also, height is wired into your genetic code, as well as nutrition to some extent. No one factor controls for height.

If you have the money though, your best hope is limb lenghtening surgery. (Used to increase height in people with a genetic predisposition to being short). This article gives more information.

But don't let your short height hold you back though. Life is life.

The shortest of my siblings is 6ft....The rest of us are 6ft plus...The secret,we Had lots of protein growing up.
Beans, fish, meat etc....

I used to hear that one can not lose height oo , until I saw my self being chubby and from 6ft back to 5ft10 declining to 5ft9 .... I casted my village people and redraw my activities , also consumed more protein and this Fasting has helped me burnt more calories too ... Nigga just straight up back ....

I usually lift weight while standing though .... But I think it is normal to lose horizontal when you tryna build vertical ... You should have combined the two in your routines ...
Any way, I will subject your assertion on lifting while standing to further research !
