It's said everywhere, height and looks are determined by genetics for 80% and 20% by environmental factors. For looks we already know that you can change a lot and I'm not sure about calling it 20% (mewing, braces, mse etc.). How about height? There are quite some posts on here that talk about stacks and what supplements etc. to take, from hgh to to niacin to mk677 and other peptides. People say hormones are important and igf-1 is important. What you're told = the lesser the estrogen the taller you are.
I've noticed a lot of people online and irl that have shit diet, posture, sleep habits and other things that are told to be bad for your overall health. I live in the netherlands and here are 3 levels in school: smart, average, dumb (stereotypical but overall true). In the "dumb"-level almost every guy does drugs, mostly weed, cigarettes and alcohol, some do xtc, speed and other harddrugs. Most have shit diets (chips, cookies, cakes sugary foods and other processed shit). During lunchbreak everyone (every level) has a sandwhich, usually with ham and cheese or peanutbutter and "hagelslag" (literally colored sugar made with artificial juice). They probably eat potatoes or smth in the evening and during the day they eat processed food, at most they eat an apple.
Yet a many of them have well developed faces, are 183 cm (6 foot) or above. Not many of them have facial hair and if they do its little to none (talking age 15-19). Most start they puberty late and don't have very deep voices. They have a full head of hair (no receding) and most are skinny to the bone, some are fat too, not in between tho.
I notice time and time again that kids with shit lifestyles are taller than their family and have well developed skulls. My friend who was 2 cm shorter than me exactly a year ago is now 5 cm taller than me (we are the same age - 17). His dad is as tall as me. He has 2 brothers, one is 21 and the other is 19 I believe. The one who is 21 never goes outside, and didnt go outside as a little kid and he only plays games, sits at home all day, eats barely and doesnt sleep a lot, has fucked up schedules (eats at 3 am sleeps during day) and sleeps only for about 4 hours or smth, YET HE IS 2 METERS (6 foot 7) . His other brother is the same height as his dad and is kinda social and plays tennis. Both my friend and his 21 year old brother have good developed skulls (his brother is so developed he looks like a fucking alien).
DOES SOMEONE HAVE AN EXPLANATION FOR ALL OF THIS SHIT? DO GENES REALLY PLAY THAT BIG OF A ROLE IN HEIGHT OR IS THERE SOMETHING WE DON'T KNOW.... ANYONE A THEORY ON THIS BS?
Another example: Logan Paul - this is him at age 17-18 (about 3 cm [1 1/2 inch] shorter than his dad.
This is him done growing - at about age 22 (about 10 cm [4 inch] taller than his dad) Logan Paul is 188 cm (6 foot 2) and his brother Jake Paul is 182 cm (~6 foot).
Another interesting thing to note is that Logan has a good lower third, good chin and popping cheekbones but lacks eye hooding nad has no browridge, whereas Jake has a good chin but has shit cheekbones but has a big browridge. Both are balding but Logan is better at hiding it and will look beter even if he goes bald cos he can rock that cowboy western look and only growing a stache.
edit: His fucking wrists are wide too
He did wrestling since the age of 11 I believe.
