Okay /fit/ I heard of this shit at the gym which is supposed to make you taller. It involves doing some high intensity exercise in which you use your legs like sprinting and this causes microfractures to appear in your shinbone. After that you wear ankleweights and sit on a high chair so your legs don't hit the ground.
Normally when your bone repairs itself it will repair the tiny microfractures and there won't be any effect to bone length. But if you wear the ankleweights the bone will fill in the small gap from the microfracture since it can't repair it like it would normally because of the weight on your ankles.
Thought about this? Is this just broscience or is this possibly legit?

Broscience. If you want longer legs, get a lengthening surgery done
keep trying manlets.

There's a reason we don't hear about it. It is broscience. If it works everyone would be doing it. Even if it does increase your height, it will put unnecessary pressure on the joint and could cause joint pain overtime. What's more (if it even works), the height increase from your shin will fuck up your body's geometry. Your limb has to be in a certain ratio for it to work efficiently. Look up people who had height increased through surgical procedures. They have 0 sports ability because their body's leverage is all out of wack. Their body has 0 functionality and the proportion is wrong just by looking. The height increase you hear about is most likely either from measuring height in the morning (no spine compression) or incorrect measuring techniques. Remember, if it sounds good to be true, it probably is.

Alright guess it is too good to be true then

manlets
>when will they learn

microtears in muscles=good
microfractures in bone=not good at all
Get your bones broken or sawed in half and wear a brace for recovery that can be extended by a mm every once in a while for half a year to a year. That’s how they do it in people with length difference birth defects.
Two problems, each equally grave:
>finding a doc shady enough to do it but good enough not to fuck it up
>manlets taking my shitposting as srs advice and DIY mode attempts crippling or even killing them gruesomely
Come to think about it, the last point would at least prove Darwin right.

then explain why people are still scared of dietary cholesterol

>dietary cholesterol
It's bad for you though with evidence even
