THE SKELETAL SYSTEMThis will be a very controversial thread as most people on this website ARE VERY LOW IQ and do never think for themselves
Genetics do NOT play as much of an important role in HUMAN SIZE as people might think. Attributing every single thing to GENETICS is a mental illness and most importantly A PSYOPP to make people feel powerless and not in control of their body or their actions. Genetics is mostly (90%) the result of the environmental and eating habits we inherit from our parents without even realizing it. If a mother is on the shorter side because she didn’t eat sufficiently during her own formative years, she may see that smaller appetite or limited food intake as “normal.” She then unknowingly passes down this same pattern providing meals in smaller portions or not encouraging extra nutrition to her child. Over time, the child absorbs these eating habits, effectively recreating the same growth-limiting conditions. The result is a repeated cycle of short mother → short child, which many mistake for a purely genetic effect, when in reality it’s driven by lifestyle and nutrition choices carried over from one generation to the next.
When children from regions with limited food options relocate to Western countries, where calorie-dense meals and greater nutritional variety are widely available, they often experience significantly enhanced growth spurts
How does ONE grow tall?Growth Plates
In children and adolescents, long bones (e.g., femurs, tibias) have cartilaginous regions at their ends known as growth plates. These plates are responsible for producing new bone tissue, extending the overall length of each bone.
Mechanical Signaling
Nutrient-Fueled
For the new bone tissue to form, the body needs sufficient nutrients (protein, minerals, and a surplus of calories). Without enough “building blocks,” the stimulus (jumping) goes to waste because there’s nothing to build with.

The “NBA Theory”: Why Basketball Players Grow So Tall
The “Chicken or the Egg” Dilemma
Perspective 1: Already Tall, So They Play Basketball
Many believe that people who hit impressive heights early naturally migrate to basketball because being tall gives a performance advantage. While being tall does help, this alone doesn’t explain why some families or entire basketball-focused cultures produce a higher proportion of exceptionally tall players. There must be an environmental factor (which is jumping DUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUH) that actively boosts growth during critical years.Perspective 2: Basketball Jumping Creates Tall Players
Basketball involves constant shooting, rebounding, and layups—countless jump landings. When started young, these repetitive impact forces supercharge bone growth signals in open growth plates. Most youth basketball players who are serious about the game often match high activity with high-calorie, high-protein diets. This fuels the continuous bone remodeling needed for extra growth.just watch the BALL brothers, THEIR DAD LITERALLY BRED THEM TO BECOME BASKETBALL PLAYERS SINCE they were LITERALLY kids. THEY ARE NOW GIANTS + many many more NBA players
HOW PLAYING BASKETBALL and VOLLEYBALL WILL 100% MAKE YOU TALLER if you are still young
Intense Jumping Repetitions
Basketball requires frequent jumping for rebounds, layups, dunks, and blocked shots. Each landing creates repetitive, high-impact forces. Over years, this repeated stress can supercharge growth plate activity .Players who start young thus repeatedly “tell” their bones: “Get longer and stronger!”Intense Jumping Repetitions
Habitual High-Calorie Diet
Most serious youth basketball players, especially if they aim to be competitive, consume a diet richer in calories and protein. This constant nutrient stream combined with relentless jumping provides the perfect anabolic environment for bones to elongate dramatically.THIS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT POINT HERE
Not Everyone Jumps Equally in Basketball
Some players, even on the basketball court, rely more on standing shots, minimal jumping, or a more “grounded” approach (e.g., focusing on set shots, passing, footwork). They may not get the same intense mechanical loading as those who are constantly driving to the basket, leaping for rebounds, and blocking shots. they might not experience the same dramatic height boost.
Early vs. Late Starters
Kids who begin playing at a young age—and actually jump a lot—are more likely to see these gains because their growth plates are still very receptive. Those who pick up basketball after growth plates have nearly fused (late teens, early adulthood) won’t see a significant jump-driven height increase because the essential growth window has closed.
Intensity and Frequency
The difference between a casual pickup player who jogs around a bit and an aspiring star who’s constantly dunking, rebounding, or performing plyometric drills is vast. Only those who truly push their body with high-frequency, high-impact jump sessions (plus a robust diet) will see that “ridiculous height” effect described in the NBA Theory.
Why manletism HAPPENS
Minimal Mechanical Loading
If a boy rarely runs, jumps, or engages in activities that repeatedly stress the skeleton, the growth plates receive fewer signals to expand. They might still grow to a baseline level, but they lack that extra push to achieve maximal potential length.
Caloric or Nutritional Deficits
A diet consistently low in total calories or key nutrients means there aren’t enough raw materials to construct bone tissue. Even if a small amount of impact is present, the body can’t sustain robust growth because resources are limited.
Over the crucial growth years, the body simply can’t dedicate energy to significantly lengthening the skeleton if it’s busy preserving vital functions.

Early Missed Opportunities
The window for dramatic bone lengthening is specific to childhood through late teens. Once growth plates close (sutures), no amount of jumping or calorie surplus can reopen them (they can still be stimulated but no where near as much as when the person is young). So, if that window passes without the right conditions (impact + abundant food), the result is shorter stature.
UNDERSTAND THE GOYSLOP THEORY AND WHY SUGAR + PROTEIN IS VERY OP FOR GROWING YOUR SKELETON
Sugar Intake and Insulin Spikes
Sugary foods and drinks (like soda) are absorbed quickly, causing a rapid increase in blood sugar.In response, the pancreas releases high levels of insulin to help cells take up the excess glucose. Over time, excessive sugar consumption can contribute to systemic inflammation via various biochemical pathways (e.g., activation of pro-inflammatory cytokines).Sugar Intake and Insulin Spikes
Metaflammation: Chronic Low-Grade Inflammation
Metaflammation is persistent, low-level inflammatory state often associated with diets high in sugar and unhealthy fats. The body perceives constant surges of glucose and insulin as stressors. This triggers immune cells and inflammatory messengers (like cytokines) to remain in a mildly activated state. the body reacts to metabolic “stress” (from sugar) with small-scale inflammation that doesn’t fully resolve—almost like constant micro-wounds or irritations that the body “knows” need repair. When tissue is inflamed or stressed, the body initiates healing. For bones, this involves cells called osteoblasts (bone-builders) and osteoclasts (bone-breakers). Normally, inflammation triggers higher turnover breaking down old or weakened bone and building new bone in response. In a low-level but continuous inflammatory environment, the body is always toggling between mild “damage” and “repair.” If there are sufficient nutrients (protein, minerals) available, this repeated cycle of stress → remodel → stress → remodel will lead to denser, BIGGER, LENGHTIER and thicker bone structures over time.DON'T WANT TO PLAY A SPORT AND JUMP A LOT? WHAT CAN YOU DO AT HOME TO STIMULATE THE SAME EFFECT?
Sprinting as fast as you can and then jumping as high as you can reaching with your arms for something out of reach 30 to 50 TIMES a day.
Here is a disgusting height hack cheat for you goggins hardcores. do the sprinting and jumping 50 to 100 times. shower, go to the cheapest BUFFET and target MEATS 3 times a week and EAT AS MUCH AS YOU POSSIBLY CAN. YOU ARE GUARANTEED to grow
ALL youngcels SHOULD DO THIS NOW !! THIS IS YOUR CALL YOUNG MAN TO GROW TALL NOW THAT YOU UNDERSTAND HOW IT TRULY WORKS
If you gymcel while doing this, you'll have to EAT even more to also support the muscle growth. the nutrition will be split between the bone and muscles if you do not eat Enough which will dramatically slow down your growth. I recommed NOT to gymcel while growing TALL.
+++ end the day with a 5 minute deadhang in as many sets as you want before sleep to maximize growth
