I'm 16 and a little over 5' 9", how tall might I get?!
Question: I'm 16 and a little over 5' 9", how tall might I get?
Answers:
Depends on a lot of factors, but it sounds like you maybe coming up on your limit. If you wish to keep growing, then I would suggest that you stop consuming caffeine. Caffeine increases the fusing time of your growth plates.
I wanted to be tall, so I didn't touch any caffeine between the ages of 13 and 21. Grant it that I had some genetic disposition to be tall, but I am 6'8". I probably would have maxed out around 6'5" if I had consumed caffeine.
Good Luck!

Genetics have alot to do with it. Larry Byrd grew around 4 inches between his junior year of high school and the start of college, by your early 20s your height will be maxed out.
No one can really predict, you might grow a few more inches or not.
