I have consulted the depths of youtube comments sections in my feverish nights of being baited, being disappointed, and moving on from various videos about "growing after puberty". Most of the info is shit. "Just do yoga!" "Just swim!" "Just sprint!" Its obvious none of this works. You only need to see the research on growth plates to realize its basically over unless you can find some way to shock them out of dormancy as some people on extreme HGH cycles have claimed to have done in their early 20s.
I digress, I am 20 years old and 5'11" (181.5 cm after swimming), so it is obvious why this topic is so intriguing to me. The ability to hightmog about 70% of men is legitimately 1-1.5" away. I'm too much of a pussy, or maybe ideologically opposed to hormones though, which is why these "natural" methods are so intriguing to me. This is where the youtube comment comes in.
>I am 19 years old and have grown a whole inch using this method. I ride an exercise bike, bringing it to a height where I am uncomfortable, and my feet barely can't touch at the bottom. I then ride the bike daily for around 45 minutes. When the height of the bike becomes comfortable for me, and my foot cam touch at the bottom, I raise the seat again *et cetera.*"
Now, the commenter theorized that the cause of this was some signaling that the nervous system gave the growth pathways to correct the shin length in compensating for the repeated overextension. He also sort of hinted to wolff's law just resulting in slight adaptations of thickness at the ends of the bones that add height. After trying a light version of this method for about a month and seemingly gaining .2 cm from it, I have different theories.
I've been doing this method about 3 times a week for 20 minute sessions. Not nearly what OP did, I know, but it seemed to be enough for a trial run. On the bike itself, I went from a "19" seat setting to a "23" which was a difference of around 3 inches. Why didn't that reflect in my height? Well, its pretty obvious, the hip is able to adapt to stretch your leg further down with comfort. This is when it hit me, this isn't a growth exercise at all! It's a posture exercise. It makes the hip more able to flex and tilt the legs downward, causing increased height. Don't believe me? Let's do a little experiment together.
Stand as straight and tall as you can right now. This is your height, the unchangeable metric that has blackpilled many men. Now, thrust one foot downward, taking the weight off of the other, and try and stand with that leg as extended as possible. Since your hip is shifting, you might notice you've become a little bit taller. When I do this, the difference is profound; it's a whole inch. This is how I believe this exercise can cause changes in height, by changing hip flexibility and shifting its angle. Obviously a boon for the fellow 5'11" manlets wanting to truly enter chadlite territory. I will update if I end up doing, but until then, I would love to know your thoughts.
