I thought I’m 5'6" going on 5'7".

Boy, was I wrong.

I measured my height today more accurately than last time, and I learned the brutal truth:

I’m 5'5.5" (166 cm) tall.



The last time I measured my height was Spring or Summer 2020, and I got a measurement of 5'6". I measured myself with a tape measure and put my hand on my head to find my height. Clearly this wasn’t very precise.

Until today, I thought that I had to be growing a bit closer to 5'7" based on that measurement taken about almost a year ago. Nope.



Ya know, it’s odd because my height measured at the doctor more than 18 months ago was 5'5.33".

There are only a handful of possible explanations for this:
  • The height ruler was mounted too low on the wall at the doctor’s office, making the 5'5.33" measurement inaccurate
  • My self-measurement taken today is inaccurate
  • I literally stopped growing between the ages of 15 and 16

You might grow a bit, I remained the same height from like 16-18, then around 19-20 I grew like 3cm. My pants length did not change whatsoever; the last growth spurt usually happens at the spine because it fuses after your long bones.

Nah, your long torso and short legs may be due to the fact that you are Asian. Also, Asians typically finish growing later than other races. Not tryna give false hope, but I really do think you can hit 5'6-7.

Das true, but the genetic recombination pill is so brutal. When I sit with my 5'9" dad in the car, his head is barely higher than mine, but his legs are inches longer.

Positivity is key. If you ever break your back become wheelchair-bound, you can be a height mogger.

My dad is 5'9".

Since the average height in China has been increasing rapidly through the last few decades, it's not uncommon to see Chinese sons much taller than their dads nowadays. I have 6" tall cousins, but I guess those genes skipped over me.

idk man if i my nurse measured wrong earlier or i legit decresed from intense crouched over studycel + workcel + modafinil + smoke 2 pack a day + no workout for 2-3 years + high competition field stress etc. Anyway I just measured using air freshener can method (some video was posted from that height guy) and yes 172.5 avg.

I'm in India (also Indian) atm but grew up outside (still high carb estrogenic diet though during growing years for sure - had pubertal gyno if I'm not mistaken tho very low at low bf% - just seen an interview on MPMD where they said pubertal gyno is an indication that growth plates are closing early ) Still idk man, I kept growing till around 21 years tbh (was playing sports heavily from 17-20). i think that saved me a bit. I'm still (coping) very good height back home, in EU (never felt short) as well as where I grew up.

This would be the most accurate at home method owing to the flat base of the can.



Thanks for the info bro. I would’ve saved time if I knew about that method.
