Growing Taller Exercises – Part II

It sounds almost like a no-brainer: exercise, and grow taller. The benefits of exercising are many and varied, from reducing your body fat, to improving your cardio-vascular abilities, to reducing stress, and even helping you grow taller or at least maximize your genetic/natural height.

Exercising at an age when you can grow taller helps stimulate the release of HGH (Human Growth Hormone) while putting pressure on the growth plates in your legs that helps you increase your height. If accompanied with a proper diet, a solid exercise program can help you increase your height by a significant margin.

Traditionally, it has been thought that men grow up to the age of 18-20, while women maximize their growth by the age 16-18, after which it is believed that the growth plates fuse together, limiting the possibility of further growth. These traditional views, however, are being challenged by a plethora of new, exciting research that points that the growth plates don’t fuse together completely and that height can be increased further beyond the age 20 with the application of the proper techniques (i.e., exercise and diet).

Another source of growth beyond the stimulation of HGH/growth plates is micro-fractures. This technique is used extensively in height increase surgery to help patients grow taller. Through this technique, tiny fractures called ‘micro-fractures’ are induced in the bones. Usually, these micro-fractures happen every day in normal day-to-day activities and are healed almost immediately. However, if the bone is kept under stress after micro-fractures are induced, the fractures grow in size before healing up, which, over time, can add a significant few inches to your height. Activities such as heavy sprinting, squats with weights, and other intense cardio exercises such as kicking, jumping can induce micro-fractures in the bones.

Stretching, bicycling, swimming are other exercises that have been known to aid in height increase. You will rarely find a short swimmer as the lower gravity in the water helps the spine and the femur/tibia bones of the legs to stretch out. Also, if you observe, you’ll see that Dutchmen (i.e., people from Netherlands) are taller by as much as 3 inches than the people from surrounding regions (Germany, France). It has been concluded that this is because of the excessive use of bicycles in their country as compared to surrounding countries.

For the sake of safety and effectiveness, it is advisable to exercise only as per a well laid out, tested regimen. Otherwise both the effects and benefits of the exercises may be limited.
