DOES DEVELOPMENT EFFECT HEIGHT WHATSOEVER

[Deleted member 21297]

WHEN I WAS IN FIRST GRADE, I KNEW A KID NAMED CHARLES WHO WAS LITERALLY GYMMAXXED (not hardcore, but can do flips and had bigger biceps) AND HE WAS ALWAYS LIKE 3 INCHES TALLER THAN ME.. MEANWHILE I WAS A STICKLET AT A KID WITH SHIT NUTRITION AND NO EXERCISE

FAST FORWARD TO NINTH GRADE WE MET AGAIN, STILL GYMMAXXED, WAS ONLY 2 INCHES TALLER THAN ME, STILL ATE CLEAN.. SHOULDNT HE HAVE BEEN GIGAMOGGER HEIGHT WITH HIGH T AND HIS VOICE WAS SUPER LIGHT STILL

I wonder if I ate good stuff and worked out and slept a lot as a kid if I would’ve been taller than I am now

no its like 99 percent genetics

If he was sedentary he would probably be shorter

it's gene expression (you have a maximal height written in your genetics), environment will impact whether you reach your full gene expression potential or not
