Growth Questions...

Hi, I have a few questions about growth.

I come from a very TALL family, but Im short atm at 5'7' 110 pounds 14 10/12 years old. Foot size is 10 Mens.

My dads 6 2
mom is 5 6

Now I want to know how I can...

PREDICT MY FUTURE HEIGHT
KNOW WHAT WILL MAXIMIZE MY GROWTH
AND WHAT TO NOT DO

PLEASE DONT GIVE ME BULLSHIT ADVICE!

THANKS!

 

It's all genetics, you might stay that age or you'll grow more than you think, there used to be a guy in my school who dwarfed everyone, but now, like 10 years later, almost everyone is taller than him. It all depends on genetics, you might still be growing.

 

Don't worry.. im 15 n im 5'6 =/

 

Its normal for sons to grow taller than their mother if the father is also taller.
You will most likely grow to about the same height as your father.

Having a well planned diet is important. Eat your fruits and veggies as well as allot of protein. This includes meat baked beans etc.

 

dude ur only 14.. u still got like 2 years to grow i started growing rapidly at like 15 and a half.. so u gotta wait =]

 

I have the same problem as you, my doctor says I'll generally be taller than my Dad who is 6'2. Just wait a bit, oh and drink a lot of milk

 

I hate milk any alternatives?

 

Protein, like steak ham and stuff its for growing. Milk only helps to strengthen bones not grow.

EDIT: IF anything thats 100ml or 100 grams and contains more than 7 grams of protein its considered a high protein food/substance.

 

i eat heavy loads of barbecue meat atm

 

Fruits and vegetables would be what you need then. Just keep your diet balanced and low sugar intake.

 

Indeed. A balanced diet of high protein foods will generally make you grow taller. However, if it is in your genetics, there is a chance that you will be the same height as your mother/father.

When I was 13, I was 5'6. When I was 14, I was 6'1. It all depends on the foods you eat, and your genetics. So as long as you have a healthy diet, you should be okay!

 

You can't predict your future height it's all based on genetics and the enviroment you live in.

You should be doing plenty of excersie and having a balanced diet (this includes fat, sugar salt etc) and yeah a diet with alot of high protien, high calcium and a balanced diet of vitamins will be sure to make you grow to your potential.
And don't worry 5"7 isn't really that small especially at 15. Average height for a male in the US is 5"8, and i reckon you will grow 6"

 

Most males hit their growth spurt around 15/16.
You still have two years to grow!
I myself am 14, 5'9, foot size 12 and a half. And I still have lots to grow.
If you go into your doctor, they can actually give you an averaged height of what you'll be when you're older.
Other then that, just sit back, and let time pass. (h)
Try googling find your height? or something.
