Anyone grow a decent amount after 18?

[Rabbi]

I’m 178.2 ish afternoon height +/- 0.5cm depending on time of day maybe.
I was 17 3/4 when I graduated HS and I was 175.7cm or smth like that so I’ve grown 2.5cm and am now 19 over the last two years or so but I would decimate an African village of children to be 180-181cm barefoot so I can comfortably call myself 6’0 in shoes.

I think it's relatively uncommon to these days, but I think my one late bloomer friend grew until he was 19.

I kept growing until 17.5-18 years old and that was a later stopping point than most of my friends.

My whole brow ridge came in after 18 I believe

I just met my friend post lockdown and since the beginning of 2021 he’s grown like 6 fucking cm at 19 blew my mind

that's more than average, average guy gets near 0 cause people grow very little after puberty ends

i got a cm and i think i did better than normal

 

[Deleted member 7725]

I grew from 5'9" to 6'7" at 18. Destroyed my face and frame.

Idk but maybe I hit puberty late my face really only matured post 16 years and esp at 18

that's only possible if you hit puberty at 17 or later which is extremely rare, sounds like larp tbh

 

[Deleted member 6403]

We’re always growing

Stopped at 16

I developed self-induced acromegaly from injecting HGH.

Haven't grown a cm in almost 7 months

As much as you and I want to grow since were 2 inches and *that close* to 6’, it’s nearly improbable after turning 19. But we can always hope

1.5-2cm like just under an inch is all I need for peace of mind I’ll be easily 6’0 in my shoes by then

how is that funny he's said the same thing for months now

Yeah you’ll be lucky to get anything tbh, but 5’10 isn’t even bad. I’ve somewhat become addicted to elevator shoes now. It’s kind of a bad thing but being 6’ in shoes really is a game changer, most people guess/think you’re a legit 6’ and it definitely puts a halo on attractiveness

 

[Deleted member 6305]

I did probably 2cm

It was this study that gave a bit of lifefuel to the idea

46% of boys grew between 18-27 and the average increase in the group was 2.13cm so it’s statistically speaking 5% under a coin flip that past 18 we are in the group that might grow idk could be cope since sample size is only 221 boys

How many grew between 18-20 vs 20-27? This might be where the majority grow the last 2cm

I grew 1.5cm at 18-19 then nothing 19-20

What I’m thinking too but the study says
“Late-maturing individuals are largely responsible for the differences in average stature observed in cross-sectional studies in the third decade of life.”

im assuming third decade means 20-29 years old if 0-9 and 10-19 means 1st and second decade respectively.

Sounds similar to mine tbh overall I grew 2.5 ish cm over just under 2 years from 17 1/2

 

[Unmoggablegingercel]

I’ve always been a late bloomer, I’m top of that I started gymcelling around 20. I grew an inch or two from 20-22. And facially developed a lot. So basically from 18-22 I completely transformed

Praying to any gods that can give me an inch rn tbh

you've maxxed out your posture?

I think I have a slight case of anterior pelvic tilt from too much sitting but I doubt it’s worth much

Interesting, I haven’t heard of many cases past 20 but I’m sure it’s possible. I have a few friends besides me that are much shorter than expected based on parental height. I should be 6’ at night (I’m 5’9.5 at night) as my dad is 6’ and mother 5’7 (and all my other relatives are also taller and not short). One of my friends parents are 6’4 and 5’5 and he ended up my height/5’10, when he should have been 6’1 (his brothers are both 6’2). So I guess in our cases it would be more likely, but still unlikely overall if we grew in our 20s. Not sure how tall you are relative to parents

 

[chadison]

All ik is genetics are weird, maybe try some 2” elevator shoes for now(which would be advertised as like 2.8 or 3 inches). That way you could probably claim 6’ without issue. And they wouldn’t be very hard to walk in either

Dad is 5’9 mum is 5’7.5 I was projected to be 182cm by my early life growth chart but I had cancer and treatment into my early teen years. From what my oncologist said which I have to take his word for because I have no clue he said my overall development would not be hindered but it may delay puberty etc.

I think I have found that somewhat true at least here are some pics of me 17 vs 19

i was 55kg in the first pic and 76kg in the second pic (gym and puberty most likely) I was close to clinically underweight in the first picture so at least with facial maturation it’s true for me and it’s not a fat difference because I am quite heavier in the second pic

Wtf

Everything he says is not credible by the way

Sorry to hear ab the cancer boss, hopefully you knocked it out for good. But yeah it’s possible then, the more “undergrown” you are compared to your projected height the more likely, but it’s still somewhat of a small chance. I believe the standard deviation for growth from projected is 2”, meaning that it’s not super uncommon for someone like me to come along and end up 2-3 inches shorter than expected. But it certainly is possible, bone fusion charts have shown 10% of men have major bone growth plates that fuse around 22 instead of 16-18 like others. Hopefully that’s us

[Deleted member 17174]

you can get the 1cm if you keep up with a stretching regimen then just use 2cm lifts they're easy to use and there's your 3cm

I think the wrists ankles fuse first followed by the shins the arms then the femur, spine and lastly the clavicle if I remember correctly.

yea all I can do for now is eat well get sleep exercise and ride it out.

 

[Deleted member 17174]

we're the same height I'm 178.5 cm do you feel average or slightly above or below?

 

[Rabbi]

Depends when I’m with my friends and around the area I live which is more Asian and ethnic I feel decently above average but when I’m in a predominantly super majority white area I feel dead average

I hit a second growth spurt in college where I went from 6'2 to 6'5. I think now that I've stopped growing in height my frame is also starting to fill out a bit more.

 

[Hades]

I’ve grown about .75” inches since 18, but I’m 22 now.

I actually grew an inch after 18 but that's when I ate a super high protein diet. Same thing happened to my older bro too
