When do you actually stop growing?

[carrotpiller]

I don’t really wanna stay 5’11-6’0 especially in a country where the average younger than me dude is 6’2, I’m 16 and medically speaking men stop growing at 18-21 but some sources claim it’s 16 so is it over for me heightwise?

not over, I'm still growing after 18, but slow af

How

I grow fastest when I get full nights of sleep, lots of cardio and then eating hundreds of grams of protein, basically just maintaining the hormonal balance and staying young biologically and promoting a fast and high metabolism.

Make sure bones are getting calcium and joints healthy from walking around

Me personally I would never lift weights because I think that could fuse my bones but some people say this is bs

Probably but it might still not be over. I stopped growing when I was 16 and then one summer a couple years later I improved my habits and slept a lot and suddenly I was growing again.

i honestly noticed a pattern that I randomly grow during the last month of summer and never else

yeah that tends to be when people grow the most. Some people theorize that countries with a long summer break like the U.S. makes people end up growing taller but idk if that’s true

I honestly think it’s because you gain more vitamins and improve health because when I spend more time outside is almost the same as when I start growing again
