Not specifically: At fourteen your growth centers have some potential for growth and simple measures help the best.Follow a healthy diet, rest and exercise, but swimming or jogging will not make you grow taller than your genetic potential.If you want to know how much longer you have to grow, an x-ray of your wrist and hand can be analysed for bone maturity.
