You cant!!!! There is no way to make you taller than you are, its purely down to genetics;

If you're 16, there's a good chance you will get a lot taller before you stop growing. Wear thicker soles and STAND UP STRAIGHT looking confident with your head up. That will give you a presence. No matter what height you are, it is your posture and confidence that really matter. 5ft 7 is not small, it's average, and this will mean that if you build your muscles it will show more. You dont need to be tall to look big.

Have a look at your parents. Are they tall ? Good, then so will you be, probably by the end of your teens. Are they short ? Sh*t ! You chose the wrong parents - go out and obtain a taller pair, right now.

Get more calcium into your system to build those strong bones. Try soy milk. Eat your vegatables. Make sure you get protein and beta carotine and all your vitamins. Stay away from sodas, fast food and junk food. They are full of fats, transfat, sodium and sugar that will make you grow outward instead of upward.

do streching exercises, hanging exercises. Try skipping with a rope, also u could increase ur dairy products intake. If u get time u can also go cycling with an elevated seat. Good luck!

Wear elevator shoes. Better yet, celebrate who you are and all the things you are able to do at 5feet and 7 inches.

You are stuck with the height you're at now, or at least within an inch or so of it, so you will have to get used to it. You are an average height, I believe - so why worry?.
