I want to get a little taller, no partiulcar reason, just for the hell of it. Anyone has any experience with gaining height after 18?

Well, as I said earlier my brother is 7'1". He was 6'10" when he was 18 and continued to grow until he was about 21. I don't think this is too common, but there is hope. I stopped at 17 (@6'6&quot, but everyone is different...

I was 5'9-5'10" when I graduated high school. Between the ages of 18-21 I gained 20lbs, 3 inches in height and twice the amount of body/facial hair i had.

I'm still lacking a bit in facial hair. How was your exercise/sleep/eating patterns like during the time you grew?

I played minor league baseball so I was working out and running almost daily during the spring and summer months. My sleep patterns were consistant with age and profession I guess.

I see, I guess it's exercise, diet, and good sleep.

That sounds like me at 25. And 35. And 40. Some people's metabolisms just never 'slow down'. I wouldn't say no to an extra 15 healthy pounds, but right now, I'm not willing to eat beyond my fill and devote the gym time to get it.

I'm 19 and bang on 6'2 (188cm)

People say it's a cool height, but i'm skinny and most of the height is in my 35in leg. I'd happily take 2 inches off my leg length and be 6 foot. I'd probably even take 5'10 or 5'11 over my current height, but hey, what can I do.

Maybe I will feel more comfortable at this height when I start to gain weight. I'm also one of those guys who eats loads and works out, but cannot seem to gain weight.

There is always the hope that you will accept your height and be happy with yourself. This advice comes from a 34 year old whose father is about 5'11" and mother is 5'1" or so and who currently stands a hair over 5'7".

6'4" as well. Always one of the tallest kids in class, from pre-school on.

5'11"
size 9-9.5 shoe
32" waist (41 chest 39 seat...)

32 inseam fits perfect, 34's crumple nicely. Plus I fit in cars and planes.
But just TRY finding 32's or 9.5's on clearance!!
