slightly unconventional
Example: The bioDensity machine, marketed for osteoporosis prevention, delivers brief, high-impact loads to bones, potentially increasing density.
Theory: If targeted at the legs, it could promote marginal vertical bone growth.
Evidence: No proven height increases but promising for density improvements.
Approaches (Highly Experimental):
Frequent, controlled high-impact activities (e.g., jump squats, sprinting, or plyometrics) could generate small, repairable microfractures.
Bone anabolic agents (like growth hormone) combined with mechanical stress might amplify results (though this requires medical supervision).
Maximising Disc Hydration for Spinal Height
Concept: Optimising spinal disc hydration can maximise intervertebral disc thickness, temporarily increasing height.
Techniques:
Sleeping flat (on a firm surface) helps decompress the spine.
Drinking plenty of water before bed to ensure hydrated discs.
Stretching exercises, such as cat-cow stretches, cobra poses, or spinal traction, in the morning.
Osteogenic Loading Machines
Concept: Devices that use extreme forces to stimulate bone growth.Example: The bioDensity machine, marketed for osteoporosis prevention, delivers brief, high-impact loads to bones, potentially increasing density.
Theory: If targeted at the legs, it could promote marginal vertical bone growth.
Evidence: No proven height increases but promising for density improvements.
Bone Remodeling Through Microfractures (Speculative)
Concept: Controlled microtrauma could theoretically stimulate bone growth.Approaches (Highly Experimental):
Frequent, controlled high-impact activities (e.g., jump squats, sprinting, or plyometrics) could generate small, repairable microfractures.
