"Agrowbics" program

Edit Post

Hi there,

I've seen this program in the UK called Agrowbics which the creator claims anyone can gain a permanent height increase of between 2cm-5cm. He claims he himself gained 5cm from 5'7 to 5'9.

I'm thinking this just really builds on the whole spinal compression thing and trying to make the gains lost over the course of a day. But I reached out to the instructor and he's offering online sessions. Might be worth a try? Again I'm just looking to get any small increase before I go for surgery.

I'm aware it doesn't affect bone growth but I'm just curious as to how he claims that the height gain is permanent.

Probably but I think he's not really doing much more than the usual exercises one encourages to reduce spinal decompression that could easily be achieved through pilates and the Alexander Technique. It's about £480 for 6 classes apparently. Might be worth a try for a laugh but then again that would be a rather expensive way of having a laugh.
