What are some exercises that are good for children to grow taller?

The healthy growth of children is a concern of every family, and the height standards for children are now higher than before. Many parents become very worried when they see that their children are not as tall as other children of the same age, and want their children to catch up with them as soon as possible. Regular exercise for children can help with bone development. So, what are the exercises that can help children grow taller? Regarding this question, please see the introduction below.

(1) Research data shows that children who regularly participate in sports can be about 4cm taller than those who do not. The reason why exercise plays an important role in promoting height is that the secretion of growth hormone in the human body will increase significantly after exercise, and growth hormone is directly related to the growth of babies. Not all exercises can promote height growth. Only clever exercises can achieve the effect of promoting height growth.

(2) Skillful exercises refer to stretching exercises, jumping exercises, and swimming. Stretching exercises can promote the secretion of growth hormone; swimming is a special stretching exercise; jumping exercises can stimulate the growth bands or growth lines (the epiphyseal plates) at the lower end of the femur and the upper end of the tibia. When the epiphyseal plates are stimulated, the proliferation of bone cells will be accelerated, thereby promoting bone growth. Jumping exercises include skipping rope, jumping rubber bands, hopscotch, high jump, etc. Avoid weight-bearing exercises such as weightlifting and barbell exercises, as these exercises are not conducive to height growth. Babies under 2 years old cannot perform jumping exercises. They can only choose stretching exercises (such as rhythmic gymnastics) and swimming. Only babies over 2 years old can perform jumping exercises.

Smart exercise also includes moderate exercise and exercising 1 hour before going to bed at night. The amount of exercise should not make you tired. Excessive or excessive exercise will inhibit the secretion of growth hormone and affect your height. Regular exercise one hour before going to bed at night can promote the secretion of growth hormone and improve sleep quality. It also promotes the secretion of growth hormone during sleep.

What are some exercises that help children grow taller? There are many exercises that are beneficial to children's height growth. Parents can let their children exercise appropriately on a regular basis. If children do not exercise regularly, their physical fitness will be very poor, and they will be easily harmed by minor illnesses and easily catch colds. But you only need to let your child exercise moderately, and don't exercise too intensely.
