@onliest Yeah I figured that too 5mg+ is what I will go with. I'm thinking should I take some orally and also apply to shins?

Good luck man!

Thanks

How’s your posture? scoliosis or kyphosis or lordosis

I dont think its that bad.

This would be the lowest hanging fruit imo.

Yeah I think this too.

As I said I am pretty stiff and cant even do any of the yoga exercises I listed properly. So that makes me think that there is literally room to grow.

If you want to dive into the whole system of Functional Patterns, you’d have to buy their 10 week online course, which lays the foundation for what it means to have good posture, and some basic correctional exercises for getting there. Outside of that, in general, elongating the spine, expanding the rib cage, correcting kyphosis/lordosis and achieving neutrality with good core function is pretty much what you’re going for.

I'll look into this more and will update. Thanks for your input.

People are indeed giving up, as it is impossible to reason with a moronic maniac

Arguing with a commie is the worst thing you can do to yourself. He has nothing to lose but you will definitely lose brain cells. Its not worth it.

@thyroidchor27 @evan-hinkle Thanks. Also forgot to say that I used SA cleanser but did nothing really.

It’s better to invest in building up a resilient body NOW and keep it running like a well-built, smooth, efficient machine than to build a clunky, inefficient painful/awkward one.

Yes, we have the same idea.

Functional Patterns is more a response to the fact that the styles of training seen in bodybuilding culture ended up hurting way more people than it helped. The people who promote it and get away with that style of training blast steroids and/or TRT to mask the fact that the style of training is not regenerative and sustainable. Functional Patterns promotes a style of training that is in line with our paleobiology and thus most appropriate, most healthy, most safe, and most functional for humans to do.

Okay. Interesting.

You worship the wrong god. The judeochristian god is a delusional man made invention from a primitive people who didn’t understand reality.

As I said. I don't believe in god, its a joke. I dont think I believed in it for a day in my life. On top of that my parents are the biggest CINOs I have ever seen.

Prioritizing high quality nutrition, training properly, keeping my cognitive faculties sharp, body/mind/emotional soul grounded and capable.

Completely agree.

You want to practice stretching your muscles in coordination with a functional movement pattern to adapt your body properly.

I will look into this more. What is the best resource to look into?

and I’ll leave you alone,

I made this thread to discuss ideas of growing taller and to see if and how much is possible. So the more info you share the better it will be. The more we debate the closer we get to the truth. Thanks for your input.

My skin is soft. It doesn't have pimples, its not dry neither too oily. So its in pretty good condition. My only problems left to solve are the Blackheads & Sebaceous Filaments on my nose and sometimes forehead and the areas under my eyes.

How do I get rid of them? Will upping my daily dose of coconut oil (3 tbsp) help?

@Sugar said he will do skincare thread (didn't do it).........

@PeatyICT said in HEIGHTMAXXING - LOG 1:

chronic hormonal imbalances

How do I find out about that. I assume I would have to have some serious health problem? Cause I have none.

So you can consider adding in collagen/gelatin (20-30g/day), and Taurine.

Will keep in mind.

I gave up because it made me uncomfortable to sleep deeply.

You cant give up. We must push human boundaries. That's the essence of Ray Peat.
Once I researched more I will add your stuff aswell.

@Runenight201 Thanks for your reply. My post for now is just drawing up ideas so I am looking for reply's like yours that have something to say/critique.

You have so many variables at play id be surprised if you stay consistent.

I think in general the exercises can be put into two groups: spine lengthening/straightening (yoga, neck stretches, massage foam, dead hangs) , and leg lengthening (the rest). Based on how stiff I am and the testimonies I have read I'm pretty confident I'll grow 1-2 inches from spine stretching. Although not much more is possible I'm afraid. Leg lengthening I am not even sure I believe its possible but will give it a try. I have not yet researched those ideas at all. As for consistency you don't have to worry about those things. I am pretty consistent in everything I do.

Squats compress the spine and will make you shorter.

Yeah I think so too, but someone else said it could help promote growth if I stretch out afterwards. I cant even do squats with weight just body weight. (I'm not fat just weak and stiff).

Cycling will ruin your posture

Not really especially not the little amount I will do + correcting posture with exercises.

promote thoracic kyphosis, and over develop your quads relative to the rest of your body, throwing off your biomechanics.

It ain't gonna overdevelop nothing.
That being said I am happy to sacrifice health points for this. I haven't been sick since I was 10, 6 of my great-grand parents lived over 90 (despite living under communism), and my grandma just got out of a coma for the third time after her 3rd stroke and is now dancing. My bloodline is as tough as Stalin as my Grandpa would say who is in perfect health and spends his days fishing, walking, swimming and fucking. I am not a slight bit worried of not living at least to 90. Unless I get poisoned by commies taking revenge on my great grandpa.

If you’re looking for a style of training, functional patterns is where it’s at.

I have heard this being mentioned. Why is it so good? Are you practicing it? Where do you think its best to start with it? I did walk a lot during summer, about 2 hours of the day at least.

praying to a non-existent deity.

That's just a joke pal.

Over time, with better hormone production, ideally you become more secure in yourself and get over your height insecurity.

I am not insecure, just interested in pushing my body and to see what it can do. I didnt even find out this matters at all until Like 5 months ago when I started using twitter. In real life no one gives a shit. Its the 1% terminally online NEETs who try to blackpill each other about everything. Never even met women who asked my height.

@Achille Insightful. Do you do these? Also how often?

@Achille Okay i didnt know that. What are the best methods?

@papi Sprints can also get you jacked. Its good to include in your routine. I just dont want to over do it.

Have you seen it.

No, but i'm not surprised at the results. If you link it I'll read it. Thanks

@papi

Do you plan to incorporate twice daily sprint sessions in your schedule too? Very good for HGH.

Yeah I might have to. But I think it would be important to not over stress my legs.
Thanks Papi...

600 mcg of k2 is retarded . Even 10 mcg stimulates testosterone production.

Actually I have learned that the best dose is around 5 mg/day. To maximize bone growth.

Minimising estrogen and hoping for the best is ideal

I think so too.

why are you ditching DHEA?

It closes growth plates quicker (different growth plates close in different time) I think. I still haven't done enough research on the Andro/Tyromix/DHEA sides of things. I havent started with those yet so its not final.

@thyroidchor27 Not hard. Are you lighter atleast?

@thyroidchor27
Better to learn swimming fatboy.

@thyroidchor27

Pajeets will be exterminated. You have less than a year.

@1L said in Every way I know to grow taller and increase bone mineral density with explanations:

reread my post the homeostasis part is very important

Expand on that please.

u could have gave me some credit

I gave at the bottom I wrote how I got all this knowledge from posts on here and RPF. But I will maybe link the posts if Im bored later.

@thyroidchor27
