I know we technically have a thread on this already, but fuck it, its old and I would appreciate some updated answers from the "pros" here themselves.

I already know about the importance of maintaining a good posture, and how some exercises and stretches can help, but my problem is that I have been slacking with my exercises. I used to swim regularly at the gym three days a week, but I stopped doing this do to life problems. Now, with life being shittier I feel the need to workout again, but mainly if I can still grow.

I live my days usually sedentary, and I believe I am around 5'7, I am not fat at all, but actually pretty slim, but maybe a little too slim. I just want to be 5'9 - 5'11''. Is it possible?

I'm 24 and I don't think I'm done growing. Just gained about an inch and outgrew my shoulder width in some of my clothes…

Make sure you're eating very well. Ain't gonna have shit without that.

Yes, but you're close to reaching the point where most natural outliers stop growing without a special condition like gigantism or pituitary tumor.

I keep repeating this in thread after thread, but it applies to you too, so hopefully it's not taken the wrong way. Polyunsaturated fats heavily suppress the thyroid axis. They are the #1 problem with the modern diet. You require robust thyroid and liver function to continue growing. The only way forward is to limit polyunsaturated fat intake and increase protein consumption for your liver and carb consumption for energy.

The fat soluble vitamins A, D, and K (MK-4) are very, very important for skeletal growth. Vitamin E will help the liver. Collagen is a major component of bones, so eat at least 1-2 servings of gelatin per day (probably collagen hydrosylate). But one way or another if you want to actually make this happen in the time you have left, you're going to eat tons of leaves. Yes, leaves. How do you think gorillas get their gains? Either you eat bones, collagen, and marrow like a lion on the Savannah or you eat green things like every single land animal that gets big without eating other animals. Pounds and pounds of leaves per day. That's where the calcium and other minerals involved in bone growth are hiding. You can't just take a calcium pill. There's a hundred other ingredients necessary to grow.

Don't have time for that shit? Hire a ruminant then. It'll turn the greens into milk. A little spinach won't kill you (might help) if you cook it in small bit of baking soda to bind the oxalates, however. Milk is missing a few important things from leaves though, so eat fruit with the milk. Dates will get you a whole bundle of goodies and some boron too. Add chocolate/cocoa powder for even more growth potential. Milk+fruit+chocolate means you're loaded with minerals. Coffee in the milk will clean out your liver so you start making T3 again. You know what? Just supplement T3. It'll get you halfway there. Selenomethionine will help with thyroid hormones too.

I think you can grow. Just start craming yourself with ingredients for bone growth (leaves). A little steak too. Polyunsaturated fats and protein/mineral deficiencies stunt growth. Almost nobody gets enough vitamin K, even though it's like magic.

>In boys only, dairy product intake was positively associated with leg length ://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/m/pubmed/16684388/

I was always a big milk drinker, and somehow my legs are long unlike my parents and grandparents.

OP here, thank you so much for this! I am going to make sure that I get everything right here. I only have a few question though, so hopefully you stumble upon this thread again.

I wish that I could just drink milk regularly, but I am a little bit lactose intolerant, or at least dairy products messes up my face. So I have to use a substitute of almond milk, which would be a problem if I am still trying to grow. However, if I consume a good amount of beef, should it be bought raw than home cooked (and more than just steak as well, steaks take forever to eat man)? I'm guessing so, but just want to make sure.

When you mean leaves, you mean stuff like spinach, kale, and the works? Would it be better to eat them primarily raw, non-cooked (unless with baking soda like you said)? For if I can just eat a ton of raw spinach, I think this can be possible, but just want to make sure on the other leaves I can eat as well.

Looking at ruminant products, which brand would you recommend, for they all look inedible to me. Cocoa powder sounds good, but does it have to contain dairy? T3 is interesting, but should it be taken as a pill or consumed as fruits, and what fruits as well will help me with my T3? Is it oranges and pomegranates or something?

Everything else you recommend I will asap put into practice. Again, thank you very much and I hope you are able too see this post!

Diet and exercise may play a role, but it's mostly genetics, don't stress too much.

>and stretches can help

You would do better spending that time for dedicating a prayer to Mr.God. You can stretch muscles and ligaments, not bones.

You could also do X-rays to check if your growth plates are still unsealed and hence still have some chance of actually developing in height.

X-rays, even brief ones, damage bones. They have an estrogenic effect, and estrogenic influences are known to stunt growth. Ultrasounds on the other hand can stimulate bone repair and increase density.

There is no point in asking a doctor if it's possible, anyways. If OP just wanted to lay down, accept some dogma about when height increases are possible, and kill himself he doesn't need a doctor's examination for it. Maybe growth stops when plates close. Maybe plates can open back up. Possibilities are only explored when helplessness and dependence on old ways of thinking are cast aside. I've heard of late life height increases, but OP is well within a normal age range for continued growth.

Maybe he won't get any taller, but it's not in vain. The courage to try, the will to succeed, and the search for truth keep the spirit from being cut short.

That was actually a pretty good motivational and thought provoking post there anon. Thank you, and god bless.

Gorillas eat leaves because that's the only thing they can eat.

Well said.

OP use your SPIRIT POWER and let its authority guide you. Eat big get big. Stand in the middle of a room and whisper, "Grow, grow, grow…". Use consistent will power.

Prepare for growing pains. If it feels like growing pains something is going right.

Bulk up and then wear cowboy boots if you want to look bigger because you probably won't grow past your early 20s unless you're an extreme outlier. Alternatively, move to Asia or south America, you'll be around or above average height depending on where you go. Good luck with your great task though anon, try to make it for the rest of us manlets.

t. 5' 7'' skele anon

height doesn't matter too much for getting decently cute girls; I'd only be worried if you had a micro dick too, because you can't really help that situation without destroying your phallus long term
