Answer 1

How tall you grow is hard-wired into your genes. But if you take care of yourself and eat a balanced diet you will grow to your maximum potential.

Since you're only 14, you probably have another growth spurt ahead of you. And you're probably going to be a very tall young man.

>>>* Hey What's up Man, my friends call me Skippy. I know RIGHT where you are now, as I was once there, and I can tell you first hand that it is ABSOLUTELY possible to grow in height after you thought you were done growing forever. Perhaps my own story could be of some help to you...

My family has been in the aviation business since the 1960's. There has been pilots, engineers, baggers, stewards, and of course stewardesses. I never really had much of an interest in piloting or working as an engineer, but I LOVE the sky, and being on airplanes. I had already traveled to 12 different countries by the age of 21. So for me, being a Steward(flight attendant) was always my dream job. The only problem, however, is that there are height requirements for safety reasons. As I was exceptionally short in height- my college degree, and qualified resume meant nothing. I was denied my first job as a flight attendant because I was about 2 inches short of their requirements. This absolutely devastated me. I thought my dream had gone out the window. I was also embarrassed, it was sort of like not being able to get on a ride at an amusement park because I was too small. Which has actually happened to me, btw. Lol. But this was worse, this was my dream career, and future at stake.

At this point, I began scowering the web for help. First I tried seeing if there was a way, some way, to get around the height requirement mandated by airliners. The answer was a big fat NO. Once I had determined there was no way around it, I started feeling hopeless, and desperate. THAT'S when I started looking into the seemingly ridiculous idea that you could continue growing, even after you were finished with puberty. So, after hours and hours of research, reading countless reviews and testimonials, I did come across one website - http://www.growtall.pcti-system.com .. A natural height-growth program that caught my eye. Setting my inherent skepticism aside for a moment, I signed up for the site. Now, fast forward a few months after learning and utilizing all the material and support in the program, I actually grew 3 INCHES! That's no lie. Dead serious. I have since re-applied for the job I would have otherwise gotten if I had met the height requirement. They don't even believe me, lol! They have not set me up for another interview, but that's Ok. If not them, I will have my dream job soon with another airliner as this time I won't have to worry about coming up short. No pun intended! lol.

Anyways, I hope my story was of some help to you, and I wish you the best!

No food will actually make you grow or not grow. How tall are your parents/siblings? That will give you a better idea of how tall you will be. At your age though, and a girl, you may be at your peak. i have been 5' 6 1/2" since I was 10. 5' 7" is not short by any means.

Answer 4

If you're a guy you have plenty of more time to grow! I have a guy friend who's 25, I swear he just keeps getting taller. Don't worry you'll grow. Dont be sad, my brother is 27 and he's only 5'5

Answer 5

I actually used the program that "Skippy" person speaks of. It really does work. That same website, http://www.growtall.pcti-system.com .. I played basketball in college, and I used that to gain a couple in height. A total of 2.5 inches. After that, it seemed to plateau though. I could not gain any more than 2 1/2, no matter how hard I tried. But those inches really gave me an advantage in my games. Well worth it.

Answer 6

It usually depends on genetics at what age you stop growing. Be happy with 5' 7" . I'm 5'5" and 17. I know a lot of people shorter than that .

Answer 7

I didnt know you could grow taller!

Answer 8

Exercise-induced growth hormone (EIG) has been recognized physiologically and results from acid-base balance, catecholamines, nitric oxide, and lactate. Out of these, nitric oxide and lactate are primarily responsible for human growth hormone secretion. These are the products of resistance training.

While doing resistance training stretches, you should aim to increase the secretion of human growth hormone. Human growth hormone is responsible for thickening the cartilage, making the bones denser and increasing your height. Hence it is important for you to make each and every stretch intense to increase your height.

you can't controll how you grow, its in your genes!
