What in the world can I do to grow just 2 more inches?

<p>I'm currently 5'10", and I'm dying to reach just 6 foot flat before I stop growing. I'm already 18 years old, so I feel like I don't have too many growth spurts left to get those 2 inches...now I know genetics is the biggest factor in height, but is there anything I can do that will help me?</p>

<p>It is technically possible that if you break your legs (a full clean break) when they heal there would be more bone tissue which would theoretically make you taller…</p>

<p>Why do you want to be taller?</p>

<p>I’m perfectly content for being 5’10". 6 ft is a rather arbitrary number. Think of them in metric units: 6 feet is 185 cm and 5’10" is 178 cm. There’s really no difference.</p>

<p>HGH. Just as long as you aren’t planning on any athletic scholarships.</p>

<p>you should be happy. at least you aren’t 5 6 like me.</p>

<p>You should be happy. At least you aren’t 5’8" like me.</p>

<p>5’11.5’'. I’m rounding.</p>

<p>I thought you meant grow a different area…</p>

<p>you should be happy. at least you aren’t 5’ .5’’ like me. yes i count the .5 inch.</p>

<p>^yup same here. Almost 17yrs old and I’m exactly 5’5". My dream is to get to 5’10" before I’m done growing. 6’ is kind of a “stretch” at this point haha</p>

<p>go take a swim</p>

<p>5’10" is a perfectly good height, that’s how tall I am and would be pretty content. But, I’m only 15, almost 16, so I doubt I’ll be 5’10" for long</p>

<p>Shoe inserts, duh.</p>

<p>You should be happy, at least you’re not 4’9 like me lol.</p>

<p>ahahah at least your not 5’5, im sure your getting annoyed by these type of comments, but really there is no actual way, maybe jumping rope?</p>

<p>im 5,6 but i round up 1 inch</p>

<p>Drink plenty of water and put yourself in direct sunlight.</p>

<p>at least you’re not 4’1" like me</p>

<p>Wow 18 replies and only one actually tried answering the question…</p>
