Can men grow taller by running?

Many people have the habit of running after get off work, because running can not only strengthen the body, but also release our stress at work. Many people don’t know much about the question of whether running can make you taller. The answer to this question is yes, it just requires us to persevere. Next, let us understand together whether running can make you taller? What other issues should we pay attention to?

Studies have shown that brisk jogging can enhance respiratory function, increase lung capacity, and improve the body's ventilation and gas exchange capabilities. The oxygen supplied during jogging can be 8 to 12 times more than when sitting still. Oxygen is essential for maintaining human life activities, and the ability to absorb oxygen directly affects cardiopulmonary function.

Generally speaking, the oxygen absorption capacity of the elderly is lower, and exercise can improve their oxygen absorption capacity.

The maximum oxygen uptake of elderly people who jog is not only significantly higher than that of their peers who do not exercise, but also higher than that of elderly people who participate in general exercise. Jogging can strengthen and thicken the myocardium, and has the effect of exercising and protecting the heart. The heart size and function of an elderly person who has been jogging for many years is no different from that of a 20-year-old young person who does not exercise. This is because long-term exercise improves myocardial nutrition, makes the myocardium developed, and improves its function.

Jogging can increase blood flow, enhance blood vessel elasticity, and has the effect of promoting blood circulation, removing blood stasis and improving blood circulation.

When jogging, the coronary blood flow can increase 10 times compared to when you are at rest, that is, the blood flow can reach 1200-1400 ml per minute. For people who jog regularly, their heart rate can drop to about 50 to 60 beats per minute, which allows the myocardium to rest for a longer period of time.

Jogging can promote whole body metabolism, improve lipid metabolism, and prevent excessive lipids in the blood. Coronary heart disease, hypertension, arteriosclerosis and other senile diseases are mostly related to lipid metabolism in the body. Jogging can improve the normal metabolism of lipids in the body, reduce the content of cholesterol and triglycerides, prevent and reduce the deposition of lipids such as cholesterol on the blood vessel walls, thereby playing a role in preventing and treating coronary heart disease, hypertension and other senile diseases.

Jogging can control weight, prevent arteriosclerosis, adjust the excitation and inhibition process of the cerebral cortex, and eliminate brain fatigue. Jogging can also produce a low-frequency vibration in the human body, which can exercise the vascular smooth muscle, thereby increasing the tension of the blood vessels. It can remove deposits on the blood vessel walls through vibration, and at the same time prevent the accumulation of blood lipids on the blood vessel walls. This is of great significance in preventing and treating arteriosclerosis and cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.

Can running help you grow taller? Of course you can, and running has many benefits, so we can do some running exercises in our spare time. Of course, there are many things to pay attention to when running. It is best to run in the morning because the air is fresher in the morning. It is best to run for more than half an hour each time, so that it will be more effective.
