The only way you could do that is by an act of god sweetheart. I don't want to say it's impossible because I suppose anything can happen, but the odds of you growing 4 inches in 2 weeks is about 1 in 99 trillion.
It's just not going to happen. Your body grows at it's own pace, there is nothing that you can do to increase your height except surgery. Especially being 12 years old your bones are going to grow a little but not 4 inches in 2 weeks, it's just not possible.
Besides IF you were able to have your bones/muscles/tendons/cartilage, in your leg grow that quickly your legs would be in such excruciating pain that you wouldn't even be able to play basketball.
My advice is to develop a good outside jumpshot that way you can step back away from the bigger girls and just shoot over them. Sorry but what you are asking is impossible no matter what you do.
Oh and someone above me said drink milk...that won't make you grow faster. Milk helps your bones to stay strong, it won't make them grow...
If you have any questions you can email me

Seems have a big turn in a person's life. The external form of a person is ideal in the eyes of the planet when every feature is assembled in flawlessness or very nearly there. Of all of them, height represents an important role.
Height is not just lots is one of the critical standards in plenty of areas: sports, being a part of the security force, wooing someone, obtaining a work or just bolstering one's assurance therefore, if you want to be slightly taller you just have to use this program https://bitly.im/aL5gq , grow taller 4 Idiots.
The combination of proteins with growth hormones, could certainly lead to a taller stature and this really is what you would study on this book, how you can set this mixture used because this system really work for nearly all people.

You can start over and choose different parents. Other than that you can't control or always accurately predict what your genes are going to do. If I remember right your growth is controlled by your pituitary gland, which will produce growth hormones until it receives a signal to stop production - there's no controlling that. In fact you might get what you wish for - and then some ending up taller than you wanted to be because your pituitary didn't stop producing hormones.

That's not going to happen. Sorry. Have you even started puberty yet? You are so young---you need to give it time. Guys are not done growing until they're 21-22. Your height comes from your genes. There is nothing you can do about it. You will grow when you are supposed to grow. And there is no way to tell when that will happen or how tall you will be. If you want a good idea of how tall you will be one day, look at your mom's family---because you get your height from them. Her dad, uncles and brothers. Are they tall? When did they grow? Find that out and you will have a good idea about your own height.

I'm sorry, but there isn't really any way to make yourself grow taller.
If you're twelve you may end up getting a growth spurt, it depends on genetics. Ask your parents when they got major growth spurts.
The best advice anyone can give you is to eat healthily, and maybe to stay away from caffeine as best as you can, because it's said to stunt growth.
Hope I've helped!

4 inches is alot. Very very hard because growth is caused by horomones and the only way you will be able to get medication to aid your growth is through a perscription

Have you ever heard of The Rack? I would suggest either that or prehaps a good drawing and quartering. Used to work in the old days anyway! Good Luck!
