OMG! Lift weights, shorties! I had my annual well-woman check today... I've GROWN 1/2" in the last year. Doc & I are attributing it to weight lifting's form focus and stronger muscles improving posture. :happy: Heee! I GREW!!!!
No longer 5'3.75" but 5'4.25"

Strangely, I've always been 5'2 and 1/4 but lately I've been told I'm 5'3...and I been lifting heavy for over a year. Maybe I got taller too:glasses:0

If I lift enough I should be tall enough to realise my life long dream of being a VS model0

I gained 1/4" in the last 5 years. My husband thought I was crazy so I made him measure me. I never really thought about it like that (because of weight training) but I suppose it is possible.0

I am so going to start lifting......then maybe I can grow (4'11) and 138lbs would not be so bad
If I could lift enough to be 5'2 I would be PERFECT! lol

Yes! That is sooooooo true!!!! I was 5'2 last year I am 28 years old and grew an inch. I am now 5'3!!!!0
-
Seriously? I wanna grow!0
-
Huh. I've never given one second of thought before right now. I used to be 4'11 3/4" and now I am 5' even.
Weird.0 -
No growth needed here, but congrats to all of you. That's a cool side benefit to lifting, right? If only it would shrink my size 11 feet.0
-
OK, not quite a shortie...but I'm totally gonna measure my height soon0
-
A half inch will do me no good. I'd still be approximately 5'1".
Although I have been lifting for about a year. Maybe I will measure!0 -
I'll definitely vouch for this! Doing pilates has improved my posture so I've gone from 5'3 to nearly 5'4! ;D0
-
doubt it would work for me lol I've already got excellent posture tugging on a fresh piercing really gets the stand up straight thing through0
-
Wow, maybe I can gain back the 1/2 inch I lost by getting "OLD" :bigsmile:0
-
Awesome. I obviously need to measure my height soon.0
