Good day Sir/Ma'am! I'm 18 years old, currently 3rd year in college, I just want to know if I'm still gonna gain height at this age.. I gained an inch last December 2010 - February 2011.. Now, I'm 5'7" and still wanna be atleast 5'8 or 5'9 this year.. My aimed height is 5'11.. Can I? If so, How could I achieve this? Thanks.

Hi,
As you are 18 years, there are all chances of height of few inches.
Take high protein diet.
Go for height increasing exercises like running, jogging, swimming, jumping ropes and cycling.
Ok and take care.
