hey if you are below 15 years. and if you do some right workout. it is little possible to become tall. choose a good gym and take some workouts for best result(straight arm pull over, squat, lot workouts, chin-up, etc)... but if u r above 16 years. " There is no chance to make you tall".

we build muscles by stressing them out. lift some weights or play more. i have no idea about the height thing though. i'm guessing that's generic. but you can do exercises for your back & shoulder muscles to give you better posture- that would make you appear taller. in any case, holding your head high always helps.

I'm not tall myself but since I learned to walk upright, I felt inches taller.  If you have confidence, you won't feel dwarfed by someone much taller than you.  Actually a lot of the tall people have the problem of feeling self conscious because of their height.

Lifting weights does NOT affect your height.  Anyone who tells you it does is going on old school beliefs.  In the '50's people thought lifting weights made you bulky and slow and told athletes NOt to do it.  That is obviously wrong.  That same time is when people were told lifting weights could affect your height.  They were wrong about that one too.  Anyone up to date on research knows weightlifting is healthy.  PERIOD.  THe biggest tip I can give you, however, is stability must precede strength.  So... Stay away from machines, start with DB's, do squats on a Bosu ball, Push-ups off a swiss ball.  This work strengthens the small muscles that stabliize a joint and keep you "in the groove" when lifting.  Do a weeks of this type of work every couple months, it will keep you healthy.

I used to do it in high school. I suggest that you do 100 chin ups and 100 pull ups each day. If you can't do that, work up to it. I also strongly recommend an abdominal workout. Your abdomen has as much to do with that as your arms do.

You are more likely to get taller by eating more calcium, since your height is dependent upon how large your bones are, and protein is more about muscles.  \n\nHonestly, though, I don't think there is anything that will help you get taller in a month.  Your genes and the amount of calcium you have had to date in your life would play a big role in your overall height, but there is no way to naturally stimulate your growth like that.

rumor has it that one of the tall basketball players (micheal jordan maybe? i forget)used to drink lots of milk and sleep in a completely dark room in order to get taller. the milk helps the bones grow and the dark helps with some sort of growth sensor in the brain. also- you are taller in the morning when you get out of bed than at night before you go to bed. this is because gravity has been working against your body all day and has actually made you shorter. so if you have a few years to spare, lay around in bed alot!

did you know that "eves height was just below adams chin? that would be the right height" "for example"so a girl could use his shoulder to lie her head on when danceing or walking or crying on...and also i think a man likes it when a woman has to look up at him...it gives him a sence of manlyhood"

It can build muscle, which will make you look bigger.

You definitely sound tall enough for me! Look, Tom Cruise isn't very tall and he has gone a long way.  But if it stills bugs you the Guardian reports that there is a procedure in China which involves breaking both legs and having them stretched on a rack. A doctor saws through the flesh and bone below the knee and inserts giant steel spins. These are then connected by eight screws punched horizontally through the ankle and calf to a steel cage surrounding each leg. Once the bones begin to heal, each day the "patient" turns the screws a little, and stretches his (or her) limbs more and more until he has grown to the desired height. It is 18 months of agony and pain. Some patients get to be five inches taller! I won't guarantee it though.

it's always possible.  Genetics plays a huge role in how tall you're going to be.  Go to the dr. they can tell how tall you may be or if you have stopped growing.
