Hey dude, my first postings here so id like to say 'hello' to everyone.
Well I'm in a bit of a predicament at the moment. I'm 18 years old and havent really grown for 2 years when i should have. Is there any type of diet/stretching technique/exercise regime i can do to make myself any taller? I'm 175cm (5"9) and 148 pounds. I'm looking into starting bodybuilding but dont really want to jeapordise my growth should it be possible at the moment. Any tips? drinking milk or any stretching tips? Much appreciated Casper |

They're isn't really any way to spur new growth in height. You are kinda out of luck with that. Genetics are genetics. You are only 18. The typical male grows in height up until about 21/22 years old. Bodybuilding will not stunt your growth by any means. That's just something your mother tells you because she doesn't want to see you get hurt lifting weights. Go bodybuild. Short guys look bigger easier anyways.

Theirs nothing you can do to make yourself taller but a good diet could help. You sayed you havn't grown in 2 years and your 18 so your growth plates have maybe fussed but I bet you'll probably grow another inch or so. Your not that short tho and your a good height for bodybuilding since as stated short guys look big.

I like the quotes you've got their GNoc! But as everyone else said, being shorter has a good advantage in powerlifting and bodybuilding!
