This thread got hijacked by a Functional Pattern cult member. Reminder this about Heightmaxxing! Kilgore, what methods have you been implementing so far? Also what are your current morning and night measurements?

@Runenight201 I agree with your central point to Kilgore that he might be utilizing too many tools in his height quest. But I find an extremist, black or white tone when you consider things like weightlifting, cycling, or yoga. Any of these in excess may indeed be harmful, especially cycling.

However, you saying that hanging or yoga will "directly hurt you" or "make you more injury prone" is fear-mongering BS. I cured a severe shoulder impingement through hanging and stretching.

I'm not a massive fan of yoga but to say that stretching your hip flexors out through a low lunge will create joint laxity when most of us sit way too much is insane.

If you're seeking the truth, don't do stupid things like believing any single movement will result in immediate damage. Do you think our ancestors worried about spinal compression when they needed to squat and take a shit? No, that's feeble minded thinking.

Elderberry syrup + everything mentioned above

Regress the knees over toes movements you train while injured.
-Floss the Knee to reduce inflammation and circulate synovial fluid. 2-3 mins a few times throughout the day.
-Sled Drag or Reverse Treadmill walking. Help increase strength and blood flow in the injured knee.
-Reverse Step Ups. Start with standing your foot flat on the floor, progress to 2" drop, then 4", then 6". Then add a slant to your standing foot.

I recovered from a meniscus tear using the Kneesovertoeguy stuff. No ice or heating pad was needed.
Just consistent, regressed strength movements, avoiding pain, and trusting your body's ability to heal.

@GreekDemiGod Did you get taller or experience any limb lengthening during that bulk?

Wide dead hangs, back bridges, and obviously bonesmashing

@peatarianpeatler daily inversion, fixing postural issues like APT, nerd neck, and excessive thoracic flexion. Those should help
