    as everyone has already stated, there can be a slight difference from start to finish of your reps. but you'll get that back while you sleep.

    in fact, many ppl who lift heavy in complex movements, find that they measure TALLER b/c their posture improves so much when the body has the proper muscle structure.

    Well, considering that I do up to 175 squats a day, based on this theory, I figure I'll basically be non-existent at some point...

    Sometimes, the BS is just laughable! :drinker:

    why on earth are you doing so many reps?

    Out of all the comments, this is the only one that caught my attention...why?!

    pretty sure anything that makes your back stronger gets you to stand up straighter and therefore you get taller. Also you start walking proudly and occasionally peacock.
