Frequently
Asked Questions
Answered by: Sky
Since Alex & Phillip have grown taller
from the Lumbar routine, did you guys modify this routine according to their
solid results?
- Yes! The Lumbar routine has been modified. Click here to access it!
How did Alex grow faster than Phillip?
- Alex grew 1.5 inches or
4 cm in 7 months.. while
Phillip grew somewhere between 0.5 inch in 5 months. Alex was
the only one who did running with 4 lb (or 2 kilograms) ankle weight each leg for about 40 minutes daily.
Also, Phillip was never consistent with his running due to injury from doing
excessive vertical jumps. Phillip would have grown at a steady rate if he did
more running.
It
appears that jogging with ankle weights seemed to create more microfractures in the spine as this contributed to
slightly better results. In other words, if you prefer running (moderate to
fast pace), then you may run WITHOUT wearing ankle weights. On the other
hand, if you prefer mild running or jogging, then wear ankle weights for more
intensity.
Did Alex or Phillip experience any unusual
side effects with inversion?
- No side effects whatsoever. ONLY great benefits like feeling healthier and
having a much stronger upper body and a beautiful six-pack.
How do I run with ankle weights without
getting blisters near the ankles?
- Here are the solutions: Wear 1 to 2 pairs of sweatpants.. or strap 1 foam layer around
your shin (above the ankles), then wrap the ankle weights on top of the foam.
It’s weird running on the street
exposing the ankle weights on my shinbone.. I’m
afraid that people may question my intention.. what should I do?
- Follow these steps (in
order): Wear a long
sweatpants… then wrap a layer of foam on your shinbone.. then strap the 2 or 4 lb ankle weight on top of the
foam layer… then wear another pair of sweatpants [the second layer of
sweatpants should hide the ankle weights from public view].
Aside from Alex & Phillip’s
success, what about your other experimenters?
- Many experimenters are
still hesitating about whether or not they should spend $200 to $400 on
inversion boots & chin-dip-leg-raise.. thus, not many of them actually began the lumbar
routine… as more evidence begins to emerge, hopefully more people will
begin to grind the lumbar routine.
Yo
sky.. how’d you got
in touch with Phillip?
- I saw Phillip’s post on Joey’s forum and immediately knew
something cool had happened. Read his post by clicking here!
The guy Phillip on joey's forum claimed to have
grown taller from doing inverted sit-ups.. I
immediately got in touch with him by telephone.. we went on and on talking.. he
even sent us his pictures to prove that's he's an existing person..
Could you give me a brief summary regarding
Alex & Phillip’s success?
a) Alex
- this 24 y.o guy grew 4 cm (or 1.5 inches) in 7
months by doing inverted sit-ups w/ 10 lbs weight each hand for 30 minutes
daily PLUS jogging with 4 lb ankle weight each leg for 40 minutes daily
before bedtime... of the 4 cm in growth, alex
claimed that 3 cm occurred in the spine and the other 1 cm occurred in the
legs.. he said that by doing inverted sit-ups, his
legs somehow grew 1 cm or less.. but he's not sure..
however, he's certain that he grew 4 cm in permanent
height.
b) Phillip - 20 y.o guy grew
0.5 inch in 5 months.. he's not sure how much
he grew.. but he's certain that he grew.. this kid claimed that running really boosts his growth
rate when including inverted sit-ups in his routine.
Why did Phillip do on-and-off running? Why
wasn’t he consistent with it?
- Phillip has flat feet.. he developed injuries from doing
excessive vertical jumps.. therefore, he’s
running whenever he can.
Why is it important that running or jogging
with ankle weights should be added to this lumbar routine?
- According to Alex & Phillip’ success, it appears that running or
jogging with ankle weights can really increase the growth rate when including
inverted sit-ups w/ wts in the height routine...
remember to protect ur
knees and listen to ur body.. don't
overkill ur
knees when running.. start out 2 lb each leg jogging
for 20 minutes daily.. OR, jog w/ wts. for 20 min, take a short break, and jog w/ wts. for another 10 min.. just be creative.. try NOT to run
w/ ankle wts… listen to your body and be sure
that your knees are in good shape.
It’s so hard to do half-way inverted
sit-ups since I got a fat tummy.. what
should I do?
- If you’re fat,
then spend 2 months running daily to lose some weight in the abdominal
area… once you’re fit, then follow the
lumbar routine by doing half-way inverted sit-ups.
I tend to develop blisters or red marks
after running.. what should
I do?
- Wear
2 or 3 pairs of socks and the blisters will never develop. Wear good
sneakers.
Should I purchase the inversion table or
inversion boots?
- Inversion table is designed for stationary (or motionless) inversion. Since
recent growth from both Alex & Phillip points to kinetic (caused by
motion) inversion, it’s obvious that inverted sit-ups is the key to
growing taller successfully!
Therefore, if you want to grow taller by doing inverted sit-ups, then we’d
highly recommend that you should get the inversion boots.
Why do inverted sit-ups w/ weights
(performed with inversion boots) consider much more effective than motionless
inversion (performed with inversion table)?
- When
it comes to growing taller in the spine, it’s about strengthening your
abdominal area, back muscles, and the upper body. Inverted sit-ups w/ weights
can help you to build strength and flexibility in these areas. The old saying
goes, “100 inverted sit-ups are equal to 1,000 regular sit-ups”.
With stationary (or motionless) inversion with weights which is performed on
an inversion table, this method is useless since you’re not doing
anything to strengthen your upper body. Without a strong upper body, your
posture collapses and your spinal muscles lack the strength.
Should I purchase the chin-dip-leg-raise or
Ez-Up Inversion Rack?
- It’s totally up to
you… (I personally like the chin-dip-leg-raise since it’s very
convenient to get on or off)
Where can I purchase the inversion boots or
the chin-dip-leg-raise?

It’s impossible to do a full inverted
sit-up with weights.. can I
do a half-way inverted sit-up instead?
- YES! okay,
if you’re an amateur, it's impossible to do a full (or all-the-way) inverted
sit-up with 10 lb weight each hand whereby you curl your body all the way
which your head comes in contact touching your knees.. and
then drop your body down. One thing i'd suggest is
that.. you can do a
half-way inverted sit-up which I've illustrated on our website (plz review it).. in other words, hold 10 lb weight each
hand and curl your body half-way (hold this position for 1 to 3 seconds), and
then SLOWLY drop the body down.. and repeat this..
try to do 10 half-way inverted sit-ups each session... get off the
chin-dip-leg-raise or hang still to take a few min to relax.. and resume another 10 half-way inverted sit-ups... .. you should do 40 inverted sit-ups or more in total (takes
about 25 minutes including time to rest or relax).
Try to do 80 to 160 half-way inverted sit-ups daily..
for example, do 40 half-way inverted sit-ups or 4 sessions (10 each) in the
morning... do 40 more half-way inverted sit-ups in the evening... and do 40
more half-way inverted sit-ups before bedtime... you don't need to follow
this sample routine... can develop your own.. such
as doing 60 inverted sit-ups in the morning.. or do
15 half-way inverted sit-ups at a time to increase even more intensity.
A full inverted sit-up w/ wts may be more effective
than a half-way inverted sit-up w/ wts.. however, I'd think half-way
inverted sit-up is pretty hard to do and this would generate some solid
growth since ppl are indeed growing taller from
this.
After doing 40 half-way inverted sit-ups,
is there anything else that I could do to wrap things up?
- AFTER doing 40 half-way inverted sit-ups
with 10 lb wt. each hand, you may choose to spend additional 3-4 minutes
inverting motionless while holding 25 to 30 lb each hand to give your spine a
good stretch (very relaxing which helps to ease the muscle tensions).
Sprinting is too difficult.. can I do running or jogging
with ankle weights instead? Wouldn’t sprinting trigger more growth
hormones?
- It’s true that sprinting would produce more HGH
production; however, according to Alex & Phillip, they’re still
growing at a reasonable rate by jogging / running. Thus, sprinting may be
more powerful for teenagers, but not necessarily for adults (age 18 or
above).
I don’t like jogging or running at
all… I get lazy doing that.. is there anyway that I could do this harmlessly without
sweating like a dog?
- When
running or jogging with ankle wts., it's best to jog on the street since time flies much
faster and you're unlikely to give up.. one thing i've found is that jogging on the street either in the
early morning or late at night is best since no one really notices you.. jogging on the treadmill or in the gym is such so
difficult because you'll get real lazy! I'd highly recommend jogging with
your dog.. time will fly
very fast!
Should I do the shinbone or lumbar routine?
- It's best to grow taller with the lumbar routine because it's more
realistic to grow taller that way. Plus, growing the lumbar is much safer and
the fact that people are gaining solid results is pretty amazing.
If someone’s height is between
5’4 to 5’8, how much weights should they
hold each hand while doing half-way inverted sit-ups?
- If you're 5'4 to 5'8, I'd recommend that you start out with 10 lb wt. each
hand while doing inverted half-way inverted sit-ups
How much weights
should I wear while jogging with ankle weights?
- Start out with 2 lb wt. each leg for jogging… and then increase like
to 4 lb each leg a month or two later.
Why is running or jogging more effective
than biking?
- We don’t know for sure and do not have the answers… however,
according to Phillip & Alex, their growth rate appears to have associated
with regular running. Running helps to trigger piezo-electric
currents which promote bone growth as well as causing microfractures
all over the body and the spine.
How can find out if jogging or running is
beneficial for spinal growth?
- You
can test this yourself.. for
instance, when jogging, try to put your hand touching your back, you’ll
feel that the back muscles are really moving!
Can I jog WITHOUT wearing ankle weights?
- Jogging alone is NOT
enough to stimulate bone growth. Running is preferred. However, running can
be difficult for some people.. therefore,
jogging with ankle weights is another great alternative - the old
saying goes, 1 pound on your leg is equal to 5 pounds on your back.
