What kind of exercise can increase height?

Exercise is a very good way to keep fit, and it can also help increase height. Many shorter friends want to lose weight through exercise, and the effect is actually very good. However, it is still necessary to combine it with other methods to increase height. The effect will be much better than exercise alone. Let me give you a detailed introduction below.

1. Don’t be picky about food

There are two peak periods in the process of human growth: one is infancy, and the other is adolescence. Nutrition is the basis for promoting height growth during this period. Children should be fed more foods rich in various nutrients, such as bean products, eggs, fish and shrimp, milk, lean meat and other animal foods, vegetables and fruits rich in vitamins C and A and inorganic salts such as calcium, especially calcium. Adding appropriate amounts of calcium and cod liver oil to toddlers and school-age children is very beneficial for growth.

2. Get enough sleep

Bodybuilding experts often say that "children who sleep well will grow taller." Scientists have found that the peak secretion of growth hormone occurs when children are sleeping - after 10 pm, and lasts for a longer time. If you want your child to grow taller, make sure he or she goes to bed before 10 o'clock at night. Sufficient sleep is an important way to promote your baby's growth.

3. Choose more exercises that are good for growth

When participating in sports activities, you should choose those that are relaxing, lively, free-stretching and open, such as swimming, dancing, badminton, table tennis, horizontal bar, etc. However, weight-bearing, contraction- or compression-related exercises, such as weightlifting, dumbbell lifting, pull-up bars, wrestling, long-distance running, etc., are not conducive to height growth.

4. Keep a happy mood

Growth hormone, an important hormone that affects children's growth, is secreted in higher levels during sleep and exercise, and in lower levels when they are depressed.

Everyone knows that you are ready to do exercise to increase your height. Normally, you should eat more nutritious foods, because the development of the body cannot be separated from nutrients. At the same time, you should be prepared for long-term exercise, because you cannot see any height increase effect in a short period of time. This requires a relatively long period, so everyone should maintain an optimistic attitude.
