What kind the vitamin should i take in order to get taller if you are 18 year old?

the height you will grow to is dictated by your genes. the only way to alter that final height is to grossly undernourish yourself, and in doing so make yourself grow shorter - this would bring with it substantial serious health problems though, and is definitely not recommended! (for example, undernourished bones may not grow to their full length, but they will also develop osteoporosis, and be more likely to break.)there is no way to grow taller than your genes have determined. even human growth hormone will not make you do so - it will simply bring you to your final height more quickly. but it will not make you grow taller.

Height affects how you can approach the game.

Their small stature poses problems when trying to drive into the lane against taller players who are generally shot blockers.

Does doing pull-ups help teens grow taller?

Doing pull-ups will not help anyone to grow taller (although it may give a tiny temporary height gain in the way that any stretching exercise would give). The height which an individual ends up at is primarily dictated by: -genetics (it is very likely you will end up a similar height to your parents) -diet (mainly, vegetarians tend to end up shorter than expected, and those who are overweight/obese during their childhood and teenage years tend to end up taller than expected). -health (Anyone who is very ill during the period when they are meant to grow is likely to suffer stunted growth).

Can children stay short if they lift weights?

No. Height is determined by genetics and nutrition. Certain exercises (such as back squats) can temporarily reduce height if the weight is heavy enough by compressing the distance between the vertebrae. Some men can lose 1/2" of height by doing a squat workout! However, with rest the back will decompress and normal height will be regained..
