What are some exercises to increase height?

Height is very important to many people, and many people are eager to know how to increase height. There are many exercises to increase height, such as doing more stretching exercises. In addition to exercise, diet is also very important. Combining the two, the effect of increasing height will be twice the result with half the effort.

1. Static stretching:

Gradually increase the stretching force. Once you feel the stretch, stay in that position for 10-15 seconds, no more than 30 seconds. In this way, the muscles will slowly stretch while being relaxed and will not automatically contract.

2 Overhang:

Practice once every morning when you wake up and once before you go to bed at night on the horizontal bar or your own home suspension bar. Method: Hold the bar with both hands, lift your feet off the ground, relax your whole body, and gently shake your waist, hips, and legs; after hanging for 20 to 30 seconds, rest for 30 seconds and do it again, do it 2 to 3 times and then do it 2 more times.

3. Pull the waist and back:

Sit on a mat (bed), stretch your legs forward, feet together, tuck in your abdomen and chest, bend your torso forward as much as possible, raise your head and stretch your neck, and stretch both arms forward at the same time, preferably touching your feet. Do 8 to 12 times per set, 3 to 4 sets are appropriate. When doing it, pay attention to starting from slow to fast, and the range of motion from small to large, and follow the steps to prevent ligament sprain.

4. Jump training:

You can do appropriate jumping exercises every day, such as high jumping, playing basketball, skipping rope, dancing, etc. Jumping is a weight-bearing exercise that can stimulate the proliferation of epiphyseal cartilage in the lower limbs, thereby promoting body growth.

5. Swimming:

When swimming, the movements of kicking the legs and stretching the spine are very beneficial to the growth of the spine and limb bones. Swimming not only promotes height growth, but is also a whole-body exercise that can help with weight loss.

6. Shuttlecock kicking:

Kicking shuttlecock is a simple and easy activity. You only need to carry a small shuttlecock with you, and you can promote "growth" anytime and anywhere.
