Does fitness affect height?
Fitness can promote height.

1. Exercise can stimulate the epiphysis (pronounced hóu, both ends of the spine). It can promote the proliferation and ossification of chondrocytes in epiphyseal cartilage plate, promote bone development and help to grow taller. Children who exercise regularly are 2~3 cm taller than those who don't like sports. As long as there are sports that stimulate the knee joint, ankle joint and spine, such as basketball, swimming, mountain climbing and running, they can all promote height.

2. Exercise promotes the absorption of calcium. After exercise, the growth plate will be stimulated, resulting in stronger calcium absorption, which will help bone development. In particular, children's outdoor exercise and more sunshine are particularly beneficial to calcium absorption and bone growth.

3. Promote the secretion of growth hormone. After exercise, the secretion of growth hormone increases, and exercise can increase metabolism, enhance the body's disease prevention ability and prevent obesity.

4, conducive to sleep. Exercise can promote sleep. Night is the golden period of growth hormone secretion, and high-quality sleep contributes to bone development.

Step 2 walk slowly

After dinner every day, take a rest for about two hours and go for a walk outdoors until it gets hot. The body has a memory function. After the body slowly accepts the intensity of walking, it can appropriately increase the amount of exercise and exercise time.
