What exercises can help you grow taller?

After seeing that their children are not as tall as other children of the same age, many parents feel very anxious, and some even take their children to the hospital for examination. In fact, each child has different growth and development characteristics. Some develop earlier, and some develop a little later. Parents don’t need to be too anxious. Letting children participate in more sports can help them grow taller. So, what are the exercises that can promote height growth? Regarding this issue, please see the introduction below.

Choose sports that your child likes based on his or her personality and physical characteristics. Never force your child to do sports they don’t like, otherwise it will affect their mood and be detrimental to their height growth. Based on the child's preferences, you can choose exercises such as jumping, high jump, jogging, skipping rope, cycling, shuttlecock kicking, basketball, volleyball, ballet, stretching gymnastics, swimming and pull-ups according to the child's age and motor development level. These exercises can stretch muscles and ligaments and stimulate the proliferation of epiphyseal cartilage, which is beneficial to the growth of the spine and limb bones. But we should also be careful not to rush for results, because long-term excessive and overloaded exercise can cause cartilage damage and muscle strain, which is not conducive to the normal growth and development of children.

During exercise, it is best to ensure that the child's heart rate reaches 120-140 beats/minute, and it is advisable to exercise until the child sweats, has a fever, and has a rosy complexion. Let your children do more jumping exercises, which will promote their height development much better than blindly buying height-increasing health products.

How to increase height through exercise:

1. After jogging for 5 to 7 minutes in the morning, do flexibility and relaxation exercises for 20 minutes, including splits, bending forward and backward, shaking the body, etc.

2. Hang on the horizontal bar (20 to 30 seconds each time). You can do an unloaded hang and then a loaded hang; do a forward hand-grip hang and also an inverted hang (with both feet fixed with bandages).

3. Jump up and reach high. Jump up with both feet and then jump up with one foot alternately. You should try your best in each practice and strive to jump as high as possible each time.

4. Climb a small slope or stairs 20 to 30 meters high. Relax when going up and go down as fast as possible when going down. Repeat 2 to 4 times.

5. Ask two people to help, one person holds your hands and the other holds your feet, and gently pulls your body in opposite directions at the same time, for 20 seconds each time.

6. Swimming.

7. Play basketball and volleyball.
