When most of us think of exercise, we think of strength training, or heart pumping cardiovascular workouts, and often use stretching techniques simply as a way of warming up for those other exercises. When it comes to naturally gaining height though, those stretching exercises will show their true value and importance, not just by increasing height, but by improving flexibility as well.
There are many factors that contribute to a person’s height. Likewise, there are also obstacles that can significantly stunt growth. Your body is an amazing machine. When it is well maintained and nurtured, your body has the potential to grow even taller. Carbohydrates, fats, proteins, posture, exercise, and sleep each have a tremendous impact on your size. In your pursuit to maximize your height, it is important that you overcome these six obstacles that stand in your way.
Your main focus when trying to increase your height should be to lengthen your bones. You may not believe it, but you can make your body grow. Most people have the potential to be at least two more inches taller than they currently are. If you add ankle weights as a part of your program to increase your height you will see results.
