- You're not alone in your desire to grow taller. It's not just NBA players who wish they had a few inches, but plenty of other non-professional athletes too. While midevil stretching machines might not be as effective as the cartoons would lead you to believe, a nutritious and full diet combined with consistently healthy sleep can maximize your ability to grow! #shorts

He forgot to mention you need to have the genetics to be tall.
I think his point is more you need to be healthy to use those genetics to the maximum
Actually height is a lot influenced from enviroment, even if you have "bad" genetics you can actually grow taller. For example japanese people are much shorter than americans, but immigrated japanes people in western country have children who are much taller than their parents, because in those countries they eat more meat which is an important factor for height.

Guys, if you are 14, 15, 16 or even 17, you will just grow. Growth happens unconsciously and you will not even realise when you grow taller. There are so many things that you can focus on, and get better at in life such as building a good muscular body, enhancing your social skills, learning new skills, earning money and so much more. Its a time where you can learn, process and implement the things while also levelling up your life in every aspect. I was always around 160-161 cm and i tried every single thing to help me grow taller. But, when i turned 16, i went from 5'5 to 5'9 by doing literally nothing (as i was studying for my exams, somtimes even 12 hrs a day). It is just what it is, and not something you can genuinely control and change. It happens, even without your attention.
One last thing, trust me guys once you start focusing on other things that i mentioned, you will not even care when you had your growth spurt and when you got taller, as you have now become a greater man by enhancing your life in multiple aspects.
We live once. Stay strong kings.

W tips, W doctor
It’s 99% genetics but I did grow one inch off of this in just 3months. I’m tall I’ve been 6’3 since I was 18. At 22 I started working out & eating anywhere from 100 to 190 grams of protein per day and it was a noticeable difference. I didn’t try to get taller intentionally but I did everything in this video & it worked. I didn’t even know of this video while doing it. Eats 8hrs of sleep, workout 5x a week, eat lots of protein, drink a ton of water.
I almost do these things everyday. I'm 15 yo and i just grew 1cm taller in last 2 years 💀 Sometimes it's just genetics
u still got time to grow another inch or two, my cousin was 5’3 14-17 then grew to 5’8 by 18
I played this video for my daughter, who, for whatever reason, wants to grow to be taller than her already taller than average parents.
She's probably reaching for the sky. That's the limit for her.
Im 5’10 probably done growing i wish i was on my weight lifting journey younger cause the amount of protein i intake now compared to back then is crazy🤣
I do all that and even more for my entire life and I even have a tall mother but f it I have a short dad. I always jokingly say “its your fault”😭
Be Tall But Be Humble.
Say it louder 🔊🔊🔊🔊🔊🔊🔊🔊
Thanks man I’m really insecure about my height ( I keep on thinking that I am way to short ) 😊
Dr. Mike, I have a big question. I want to be a gk in soccer, and I used to go to bed at 3 AM. So I'm wondering if I go to sleep from 9-11 PM, Will my growth hormones go back to normal?
How often do you mastubate ?
Blowing a load everyday stimulates the production of male hormones and therefore height growth.
My dad is 185cm tall which is pretty tall and my mom isn’t too short either, I think I do everything perfectly, but for excercise I lift very heavy weights, (actually heavy for 14 year olds) and I haven’t grown in 3 and a half months. Is it because of the weights? I’m currently 14М and about 173cm tall
I am 5.7 ft.
My dad is 5.7 & mom is 5.5.
I am 80kgs (obese).
I am 13 years old.
I don’t know if I should cut or bulk. I think cutting will stunt my growth and bulking will make me fatter.
I workout at home for 50 mins, 4 days a week. I am currently cutting but I don’t know what should I do. Plz give some advice🙏
lose wheight first, then build muscle bulking up again
Do a small 300 calorie sustainable deficit with enough nutrients like protein and micronutrients, good sleep and rest and a balance of cardio and weights. You definitely should not bulk because by gaining even more fat as an obese person you will ruin your hormones and mess up your health. So losing fat little by little will not stunt growth and it will optimize your hormones.
@@CHINGGISJINNAHPHARAOH123 The measure ment I took before commenting was like 1 month ago. Now I am 75kgs. 5.82 ft in Morning and 5.75 in the night. I also look way leaner now. I think I also got stronger. Thanks for your advice though. I was already doing similar things what you told (except cardio, I just jumped with the beat of fast song LMAO)
@@Lazerfire Great progress in just 2 weeks! keep it up
All of this does is help you maximise your genetic potential. If genetically, you're destined to be 5'5, you are going to be 5'5 if you do all of these things, but if you don't, there's a decent chance you won't reach 5'5 and may be 5'3/5'4.
Guy's tbh do not worry too much about your height just eat,sleep,stretches and be happy most importantly i was 5'3 and was very anxious about my height but once i stoped taking care of myseld i grew 5'9
Yeah umm… I’ve been locked in at 5’nothing for probably 10 years so 🤷🏾♀️
I’m 14, with 5’6, 5’7 parents, I’m currently about 5’9, my grandma is about 5’8 and grandpa is 5’6. I had a few 6’0 uncles, do you think I can reach 6’0 with stretching posture and protein and sleep?
At the age 18 can an individual grow? Or taking in height pills work?
I have a friend at school who is 6 foot 6, and he gets 3 hours of sleep or less every night.
About 20% of height is habits. If you’re 5 ft. That means you could be up to a foot taller. Ofc there’s a genetic cap and that’s assuming you fucked up bad but yeah.
I think not everyone realizes that he says "how to grow the tallest possible" which means that he's saying how to grow the tallest that you can with your specific genetics
I am 17 and 5 10 should i be using aromatase inhibitors to grow tall like letrozole and if i do what are the side effects
As someone who has a sleep schedule that doesn't exist, and inconsistent diet, and never exercises, but is STILL tall, I am only a fraction of my true form.

@@DopeThugyes
@@DopeThugactually he's right
Not really genetic if you have better nutrition intake than your parents
Based on my parents’ described growth patterns, they were both a little below average when they were in the their mid teens and skinny, like me. Then suddenly out of no where they shot up to heights above average so I’m not losing hope but the 18 year mark is very close! But also, many people in my family including my parents kept growth about half an inch till well in their 20’s. But I’m scared cuz I’m tiny….

Man he is just staring straight into my soul through the screen.
so youre telling me weight lifting simulator was right in a sense
Hey doc a random question but does your eyes change color?
Thats great but you forgot something.
Pray to God for good genetics, if your dad is 5'9, your probably gonna end up 5'11 MAX.
so genetics are mostly important, but environment has soemthing to do with it to. Basically what that means is, you could be doing something to stunt your growth. Things that can assist in growing taller:
- Exercise, exercising has found to boost testosterone and growth hormone. However the exercises of particular note include sprints (Not jogging but sprints) and weight lifting. Begin sprinting more- like 30 second intervals for maybe 5-10 sets. Weightlifting is self explanatory.
- Nutrients- you need to eat nutrient rich foods, particularly those that help bones, like milk, vitamin d, Vitamin k3. Basically you need these.
-Stretching- stretching is important, because bad posture can put tension on your disks, your bones, etc and stunt your growth. if you pay attention, these dont really allow you to grow more, but they stop you from doing things that hurt your growth, we want to maximise the potential you have.
- Low body fat percentage- Studies show low body fat percentages increase growth hormone and testosterone, So cut down and get lean.
-Sleep- 8-10 hours is ideal for those who are young. This is very important, try intermediet fasting which has been shown to increase gh- meaning set eating windows so your body isn’t digesting recently eaten meals while you sleep this actually stops growth hormone production.
- Supplements you can get: These supplements help: Vitamin D3, k2, Ashwaganda which has properties which increase growth hormone, creatine.
These aren’t guaranteed to make you grow taller, but this is the path for ensuring you are as healthy as you can be which basically entails growing as tall as you can.
- Finally, postive mind set: Wolverine is short, Danzig is short, Alexander the Great was shorter than average but these men are cool to a lot of people. Dont get bogged down or depressed that you are short, if anything that may stop you growing. Have an open positive mind about things, no matter what. See your self as the underdog or something. The hero in stories is a lot of the time shorter than the big scary evil warrior guy. Remember Rocky? good luck

Does having hypothyroidism affect your growth much?
I’ve a theory that I was supposed to be at least couple inches taller. The reasons I say this is that I had to have major knee surgery at ages 11,12 and 13. I remember hearing the surgeon say something about “I don’t want to disturb her (me) growth plates. I’ve a son who’s 6’2” tall and daughter who’s 5’6” tall and I’m 5’2” (my children are my only known genetic relatives). Their father was only 5’11” tall.
To be tall you can grow from this but for exercises you should do wall slides
This guy reminds me of my 6th grade teacher lol not in a bad way though
Is there a cutoff age where this doesn’t help?
Most of the time between 18-20. There are occurrences after that but they are rare.
Yeah like 18-21
Thanks, I’m short, I’m tryna get taller, im gonna exercise even more

That doesn't matter I have AGHD. Basically it's like I have 40% of growth hormone every normal person has.
I wanna ask, does having a tapeworm stunt your growth? My tapeworm has been living inside me for around 2 years without paying rent, so now I'm cooking him from the inside.
me who is 6’11 and all i did was sleep
When you say exercise does it mean lifting weights and going to gym?
Good posture also helps alot of people have whats knownas text neck which actually can hide about an imch or 2 im hieght so fixing neck and back posture can give you am inch or 2
How often do you mastubate ?
Blowing a load everyday stimulates the production of male hormones and therefore height growth.
I have a question, I’m a 13 year old girl and I have 6 more months left to grow, at the moment I’m 4’10 I am a vegetarian and it’s hard to find good protein sources, I don’t have any allergies, do you have any recommendations for protein other then meat?
Wait exercising can help you get a little taller? Good to know!
Considering that it somewhat stretches out your spine aswell it does help
Yeah stuff like pull ups since it stretches your arms and spine in a healthy natural way.
