Jumping doesn't make you get taller. At 14 and 5 ft 9, that's decent height and you should be able to grow a few more inches if you do the right things. Jumping will get your legs stronger but as for getting taller, it won't do much if anything at all. Wear clothes with vertical lines or striping. Vertical lines or stripping make a person appear thinner, and thinness in turn gives impression of more height. Wear shoes that will make you appear taller. If you are a female, this should be easy since you can find a lot of female shoes with 2 or 3 inchesâ heels.
The growth spurt. Regular trips to the shoe shop and trousers that rapidly become too short are common occurrences during puberty. In their teens, children put on an amazing growth spurt to reach their final adult height. At their fastest, boys can grow taller by as much as 9cm a year and girls at a rate of 8cm a year. It's no wonder teenagers are clumsy. Their body is shooting upwards at a speed their brain simply cannot keep up with.
