A member asked:
A friend of mine got 2 inches taller by doing hanging exercises for 2 months, at the age of 19. even i saw the change. how is it possible?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Stretching: Likely his spine straightened some and tight posture muscles stretched so he was less stooped. Males will continue to grow into early 20s.
