The last few weeks I stumbled upon a post on the limblengtheningforum.com about how you can still gain about 1-1.5inch of height from cartilage hypertrophy:
Increasing height with HGH (Human Growth Hormone)
« on: January 27, 2016, 03:24:47 AM »
"Books like these cover the specifics behind the phenomenon:
http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.10...8/abstract
Basically, even after the epiphyses have ossified ("growth plates have closed" in layman's terms), there are still very thin layers of hyaline cartilage tissue in the spaces and joints between the articular ends of your irregular bones (femur, tibia, humerus, etc) that go through hypertrophy when you supplement with doses of exogenous HGH that exceed the amount produced naturally by your body
Also, fibrocartilage adjacent to the disks in your vertebrae differentiate into hyaline cartilage, which then undergo the same hypertrophy mentioned above, and the HGH makes your bones thicker as a result of periosteal growth. This effect goes for every bone, including those in the feet
The summation of all these "little boosts" generally tends to be an increase of around 1 inch
This phenomenon isn't some unlimited height-gaining cheat-the-system thing. The upper limit of height increase from this is around 1.5 inches. After that, the only other growth you'll see from HGH is in your hands, feet and head as a result of acromegaly."
Also this article claims the same:
There was also a thread on Look*sm about how a friend of the poster was using 20IU of generic HGH and grew an inch at the age of 25-6. While the timeframe for the growth sounds far-fetched, I can imagine using more hgh than your body produces over a certain period of time SHOULD increase your height by about 1"-1.5".
The question is, what would be more likely to induce this kind of growth:
Injecting peptides 5x/day (200mcg ghrp2/6 +100mcg mod-grf 1-29 = 1x) or two 4 IU doses/day of somewhat decent and affordable generic HGH.
