Be yourself: At your age, further vertical growth is unlikely. What you want to do instead is trim and develop your body -- which is at its prime. A muscular, lean man of any height looks far better than most of his peers. A shorter man is less threatening and may be preferred as a friend. Steve mcqueen (photo), the most admired male physical specimen of his generation, was 5'6". Hit the gym hard.
