When I was in high school I was 5'9-5'10" .. Now I am 21 I am 6 feet even. So yes it is possible to get a few inches in. Eat a lot (healthy stuff) and work out, swimming helps I've heard.

Any way to know if you can grow further? By looking at your wrist or something?

You could get an x-ray done on your wrist,,knees or any joint area and see if you bones are sealing off. It the space has completely closed you won't grow anymore.

Most definitely could keep growing passed 18. I believe alot of it has to do with what you eat

And Im just throwing this out there but stretching every day may help as well. I know damn sure that good sleep helps promote growth as well.. Eat well keep up your biking and maybe look into swimming.. sounds "sound" to me.. Swimmers seem to be tall no?"

My parents are 5'8".
When I left school at 16 I was 5'6".
I started work in construction so was much more active than the previous few years (70hrs p.w.) and much happier.
I was and still am slim.
By 21ish I was 6'2"
The major problem when growing quickly is you become so clumsy and cumbersome and you always hit your head. OUCH.
So, make sure you are happy in your life and increase your activity and exercise. You might just make 5'10" yet.
If I remember correctly, my feet grew before my body.

It really depends on genetics.

You know that little book that doctors use to track your height and weight throught childhood and adolescence? Well, my height was right on one of the height curves until I was 16. According to that curve, I'd get to 5"10. Guess what? I stopped growing at 16 (I'm 19) and so I've (unfortunately) been 5"8 since then. I'd like to get to 5"10, but I just don't see a new growth spurt happening after 3 years of no growth.

Unfortunately, there's really no way to tell. Based on your parents' height, I'd say you'll probably grow a bit taller. Your mom is well above average for a female, your dad slightly above. And yes, you can DEFINITELY grow after 19-20 years old. Someone earlier mentioned eating good and that swimming possibly helps. I agree. But try not to stress. It seems like stress sometimes can keep things like that from happening the way they were meant to.

at 18 I was 5'11 and today at 25 I am exactly 6 feet but I believe the extra inch was due to correcting my posture over the years with orthotics. I'd say at 18 you're just about done growing naturally.

The best you can do to encourage growth is to eat properly. Swimming might be a plus, but I'm not so sure.

That said, a medium-length penis on someone below 6' looks absolutely massive. Also, almost every workout routine and workout machine is built for guys/gals below 6'. The amount of damage inflicted on taller people trying to lift weights with things like the bench press is immense in comparison. Oh, yeah, shorter people also require a metric shitload less food to maintain, bulk, and cut. I'm 6'4" and I've busted my ass over and over for years to look the way I do, but a 5'10" or 5'8" dude could do it in four months with zero effort. So jealous. Though, to answer the question, I guess, I was about 6'1" when I was 18. I grew three inches or so in college.

I haven't measured my height since in forever, but I would guess an inch or two since 18 and I'm 22. I continued to grow, most of my friends did not.

Frisson is right. Shorter guys build muscle mass SO much easier.
