Can we still grow taller after puberty? Is a question that has probably been asked about a billion times.
It was once thought that at the end of puberty when a persons growth plates fuse that you are finished growing any taller.
This is not true at all, you can still grow taller even if you have gone through puberty and your growth plates are closed or fused.
When we are infants are body is mostly soft and stretchy cartilage.
Over time the cartilage becomes hard and turns into bone.
When we finish puberty the ends of our long bones turn into bone thus closing our growth plates.
The good news is that between our bones we still have cartilage that can be stretched over a period of time to increase height.
Your spine is mostly made up of cartilage and can be easily stretched to increase height at any age.
You will need to focus mostly on stretching your spine because a lot of height can be gained from stretching the spine.
There is also cartilage located between the joints in your legs and arms which can be stretched also.
Growing taller after puberty is definitely possible with the right exercises and diet.
There are many other things that you can do to increase your height; stretching exercises are just one of the ways to increase height.
Remember you must perform your stretching exercises twice a day once in the morning and once before going to bed for better results.
