*      (NEW) Who are the tallest people in the world? What’s their secret?
- Want to know their secret? Click here!

*      (NEW) Since vigorous springing/running can take its toll on the knees, what supplements do you recommend? (NEW)
- If you’re 24 years old or older, we HIGHLY RECOMMEND that you should take glucosamine/chondroitin 500mg to 1500mg daily. This supplement will not help you to grow new bones or cartilage; however, glucosamine/chrondroitin may enhance the highly viscous synovial fluid which provides the “cushioning” in the knee joint. Anyone who is under 24 years of age, you may choose to take this supplement (optional) since your body is capable of producing its own glucosamine levels. However, in the event that you do excessive sprinting/running, you may run short of the glucosamine levels.

You may choose to take L-ariginine/L-lysine before bedtime to secrete maximum HGH production .. it’s optional because many people who succeeded in growing taller never took such supplements.


*      Sky.. were you suspicious about Vulcrum’s claim? I know you have many experiences in the past  3 years, can you determine if this kid is a fool or a genius?
- When I first received Vulcrum's email back on April 21st, 2006, I had many doubts and suspicion.. the guy claimed that he had grown almost 2 inches in the legs within 4 months – such claim is notoriously popular in scam websites. However, frequent contact with Vulcrum gradually revealed to me many similarities.. Our easyheight experimenters tried the shinbone routine about 16 months ago and failed to gain height.

Vulcrum's crystal-clear explanations & knowlege were unmatched.. he went into details that clearly demonstrated his superiority or madness about this height subject... Still, I was hesitated to accept his claim - UNTIL I finally gave Vulcrum my phone number.. the guy called me right away and we went on & on for 40 minutes on the phone.. it was a cool experience.. I never felt more believable more than anything else.. Although he’s only a 15 year-old kid, the phone conversation truly boosted his credibility by ten-fold as I believe everything that he'd said..

Vulcrum’s growth is VERY consistent which clearly connects that his sprinting & sleeping w/ ankle weights routine.. the very first time that Vulcrum emailed me was almost 4 weeks ago.. and just yesterday (May 10th), he told me that he just achieved another half inch.. he said, "this just goes to prove that my growth is very consistent because I do INTENSE sprinting every 3-4 hours during the day and sleeping like 12-14 hours @ night & day"

*      What are the best ways to achieve proportional growth in both legs?
- We're not medical doctors and the following content is not intended to be a substitute for professional medical advice, treatment, or diagnosis. Any person following the Shinbone routine does so entirely at his or her own risk. It's a very RARE side effect but it can happen if you fail to follow the Shinbone routine exactly instructed.

How to achieve proportional growth in both legs:
- Do intense sprinting or running often:  such high-impact exercises will trigger abundant microfractures which will be distributed equally throughout the shinbones. Also, sprinting boosts the production of growth homones & testosterones. Growth hormone is ESSENTIAL for proportional or balanced growth.
- Use the same amount of weights:  when doing sitting or sleeping with ankle weights, use the same amount of weights on each leg. For instance, attach 10 lb ankle weight to each leg Also, position your legs equally so that they're fully extended over the bed in equal lengths.

*      What are tips to do after sprinting?
- Always bring a water bottle with you… after doing a few sprints, you’ll be extremely tired that water is essential for thirst. Only sip a bit of water… don’t drink too much or you’ll have nausea or stomach upset.

*      What an awesome website!! While other height websites charge visitors money, you guys offer all the amazing details for free.. is there absolutely anything that I could do to repay you?
- We do NOT accept donations; however, if you find this website helpful, please experiment the Shin Bone routine yourself and report back the results when you've grown at least 1 inch or 2.54 cm taller. EVERYONE, please e-mail us your results at webmaster@easyheight.com.

*      I’m a busy person.. can I do like 3 sprints in 5 minutes?
- If you’re busy, then give it all you’ve got in the 5-minute workout. Give it all in the first sprint attempt (lasts 12 seconds)… then take a break.. do another sprint for 20 seconds.. rest… then one more sprint for 15 seconds.. then you’re done (total is about 5 minutes). Try to do this a few times daily… but spend more energy & effort in sprinting before bedtime as you’re getting ready to sleep w/ weights.

*      When was the last time that you heard from Vulcrum?
- We first learned about Vulcrum’s 2-inch height growth story on April 21st, 2006… As of May 12th, 2006, we have not heard from him. Vulcrum said that he no longer has time to communicate with us because he must focus on his goal which is to become 5 feet 7 by December 2006. 

*      I don’t want to do excessive sprinting/running because I’m afraid of fracturing my legs… what should I do?
- If you’re afraid of damaging your legs, there are tips to prevent this which I’ll discuss below. However, there are risks to all height increase routines. If you don’t want to do sprinting/running, then you may choose to do biking.

Biking is safe for the legs (NO injuries) and is a great exercise to do while following the Lumbar routine (to lengthen the spine).. however, biking is not suitable for the shinbone routine since microfractures will not be created with biking.

*      What is Vulcrum currently doing?
- As of May 17th, 2006, Vulcrum’s routine is the same as previously discussed, but he also includes 1-2 hours of swimming before bedtime… we’re not sure why he’s doing this.

*      I’m still worried about the side effects of sprinting/running.. can u help?
- Sprinting is a huge sport in the Olympics. Every few years, someone will be crowned as the “fastest man on the planet” in the Olympics. What is there to worry about? If professional sprinters can do it, so can you!

*      What is the shinbone?
- Shinbone (aka tibia) is your lower leg which extends from the kneecap to your ankle. A shinbone is easier to lengthen since it comes in direct contact with the ground as any intense running would then create abundant microfractures.

On the other hand, it’s a bit tougher to lengthen the thighbone since there are less microfractures in the thighbone. However, further experiments about lengthening the thighbone will be underway very soon.

*      What’s the difference between a healthy shinbone and a fractured shinbone?
- Ask any doctor and they will tell you:  It takes a healthy bone every 3 years to remodel; however, it only takes a fractured bone a week to heal remodel. As you can see, by creating microfractures with intense sprinting/running, you will have a very HIGH chance of lengthening your lower legs

*      Almost all doctors & health specialists believe that it is impossible to lengthen the legs once growth plates have closed… They’ve suggested that the only resort is through limb lengthening surgery. What are your thoughts on this? How is limb lengthening surgery similar to the Shinbone routine?

- Limb lengthening surgery is an excellent example which proves that bones remodel, re-build, grow, thicken, heal, or lengthen due to a stretching force (either by limb lengthening device or by heavy ankle weights).

With limb lengthening surgery, a large fracture is created when surgeons cut the shinbone in half. Gradually, the doctors apply a leg lengthening device to stretch out the bones as new bone growth is formed to fill the gap.

On other hand, a large fracture can never be created with intense sprinting or running. However, microfractures or extremely tiny fractures (in the shinbone) may be created following intense sprinting or running. Instead of using a leg lengthening device, shinbone experimenters may apply ankle weights to stretch out the shinbone.

*      If athletes were to do lots of sprinting & running.. but they never apply any ankle weights on their legs.. In other words, they have no intention to grow taller.. so what will happen to those microfractures?
- Following any intense sprinting or running, microfractures will be created. If one doesn’t use any weights to stretch these tiny fractures, then the bones may become denser (NOT longer). According to clinical studies, old bones are replaced by new bones every 3 years.

*      While sleeping with ankle weights, my feet tend to hurt a little bit.. what can I do?
- You can try to wear sneakers to take off the pressure from the ankles.. or put 1 or 2 layers on the shinbone… or wear 1 to 2 pairs of sweatpants.

*      It sounds interesting.. okay, can you please give me a big picture about bone remodeling?
- The more microfractures the shinbone has, the rapid the healing or growing response. The longer the duration applied on the fractured shinbone, the faster the healing process. The larger the forces the fractured shinbone sustains, the greater the growth response.

*      Vulcrum's growth is probably his growth spurt.. i mean the kid is only 15 years old. It's NOT possible to grow 2 inches in such a short period of time. Why should I believe in Vulcrum's story? Is it fake?
- You're exactly right. He's a teenager and is only 15 years old. It may be his growth spurt, or it may also be combination of growth spurt & shin bone growth due to his intense routine. The fact is, we don’t really know.

You have the right to have doubts; however, try to have an open mind and review all the details on this webpage very carefully before giving a judgment. Remember, no one is forcing you to believe his story or to follow the shin bone routine. If you're still anxious, just wait for further evidence & before/after pictures which are expected to be posted on this website by late December 2006.

*      How do I possibly run outside when the weather is wet or cold?
- Whether it’s snowing or raining, it’s a sacrifice that you must make. Vulcrum ran in all kinds of weather. He got sick but never cared about it. Sacrifice today for a better tomorrow!

*      What are shin splints? Is this a side effect that I should be aware concerned?
- Shin splints are dull, aching pain is felt where the involved tibialis muscle attaches to the tibia. Redness and swelling can also occur in this area. Tenderness is felt where the muscle attaches to the bone.

Shin splints usually result from overuse. Repeated movements of the foot can cause damage where the tibialis muscles attach to the tibia. Soon the edge of the muscles may begin to pull away from the bone. The injured muscle and the bone covering (the periosteum) become inflamed.

How to prevent or treat shin splints:
a)  Try to sprint or run on a soft surface such as on grass. Don’t run on a concrete surface.
b)  Rest a day or two helps to decrease pain and inflammation. It’s usually encouraged to stop doing the activity that caused the problem, at least until their symptoms are under control. Try to apply cold packs.
c)  Some physical therapists recommend a pair of shock-absorbing shoe insoles. People with flat arches may need shoe inserts, called orthotics, to support the arch.

*      Can I really fracture my legs by over-sprinting or excessive running?
- Yes, this may rarely occur. As a result, you must listen to your body and be very careful about this. When we talk about microfractures, we’re talking about extremely TINY fractures that are not visible to the naked eye, which many consider such fractures are “safe”.

On the other hand, if you were to fracture your legs (big fractures) which are visible to the naked eye, then it’s NOT safe.

*      Did Vulcrum sit with ankle weights?
-
No, he did not sit with ankle weights. He only sleeps with them. He focuses his energy on sprinting & running.

*      I’ve been sprinting & running for 4 days already.. and my feet begin to develop blisters.. what should I do?
- You should discontinue the routine immediately and rest for a few days for the blisters to heal. Blisters may develop when you do sprinting with shoes, cheap sneakers, & thin socks. Running non-stop for 30 or 60 minutes will place you at higher risk of developing blisters. It’s best to sprint or run in a shorter duration (like less than 10 minutes) but higher in intensity (run faster). Once the blisters are healed, you need to get a new pair of sneakers that are only suitable for running – do NOT be cheap. And then resume your routine. No matter what obstacles are ahead, you are allowed to rest for a few days, but NEVER ever quit.

*      How do I know if I’m growing my legs?
- You will experience growing pains in the morning or at night. You will experience discomfort in the legs.

*      I still have doubts about Vulcrum's claim.. this kid is liar! Am i right?
- If you don't believe in his story or aren't mentally ready, then do NOT follow the shin bone routine.

*      Sky, are you guys making this Vulcrum's story up? Is it for real?
- Our height research began in December 2003 and in the past years we usually tried to approach everything with honesty, pictures, and results. While sometimes we got caught up with hype, eventually it all boils down to what works and what doesn't. If you look at our history record (or past website updates), you'll see that we are serious about height increase and that we have absolutely no intention to kid around.

*      I’m 21 y/o Caucasian male.. I stopped growing when I was 18.. I tried all kinds of stretching exercises for years but never grew a centimeter.. I’m VERY desperate to grow taller.. My life is so miserable.. please tell me, how I can succeed with the shinbone routine? How does a “major transformation” occur? What do you mean by “give it ALL YOU’VE GOT in the intense sprinting/running”?
- You stopped growing about 3 years ago. Thus, it appears that you growth plates are almost closed, but it doesn’t matter because you may still grow taller with the Extreme shinbone routine. Since you’ve tried all kinds of stretching exercises and failed to grow taller, you must understand that it takes a major TRANSFORMATION in order for you to increase height.

Therefore, a major transformation will only occur when you’ve given ALL YOU’VE GOT in your intense sprinting/running. In other words, always try to push the limits where no man has ever gone before… try to run faster than any car on the street.. try to do more sprints a few times daily… try to sprint extremely hard that you heart racing like a bullet… try to run as fast as you can in a LONGER distance every week.. try to tweak the maximum HGH production.. try to become a FREAK of nature… try to become an X-men mutant… try to sacrifice today for a better tomorrow!  Why are you doing all this? Because you’ll have a very HIGH chance of growing 1 permanent inch within 2-3 months.

*      What are some side effects to INTENSE sprinting or vigorous running?
- After intense sprinting or running, you WILL experience shortness of breath, extreme fatigue, thirst, dizziness, & shinbone pain, shinbone fatigue, ear popping or discomfort, stress, sweats, shin splints, etc. If your exercise is INTENSE enough, those are the side effects that you should experience, which indicate that you’re going in the right direction and that height growth will definitely happen very soon.

When you’re very tired after sprinting, it's best to control yourself immediately, walk around for a few minutes to cool down, then sit down to rest for 5-10 minutes, then continue sprinting/running OR go home immediately to sit or sleep with ankle weights.

*      After doing intense sprints.. I can almost feel that my heart is racing like a bullet.. I feel very overwhelmed with some side effects such as stress, sweats, extreme fatigue, dizziness, ear popping or discomfort, & shortness of breath... Is this safe?
- Again, they are the common side effects that demonstrate your body is undergoing a transformation which triggers the so-called growth genes. These effects should go away if you take a short break. You'll know that you have maxed out your highest potential when experiencing some of those transient side effects. It may be a good sign knowing that you're squeezing every bit of growth hormone production and are forcing your body to undergo a transformation. Vulcrum said that initially he didn't know how to handle such tremendous rush (from sprinting).. however, he kept on going and never looked back. He finally got used to his routine in less than a week and later felt addicted to the rush of hormones. Again, consult with your physician before attempting any vigorous exercises. If you experience shortness of breath or chest pain that persists for hours, then seek medical help or speak to your doctor immediately.

*      Sprinting is very tough.. I feel tired all the time… I lose focus during the day and people think that something is wrong with me. What should I do?
- According to Vulcrum, he constantly feels tired.. people often thought that he’s on drugs because this guy usually appears to be sleepy or distracted. Extreme fatigue is side effect of intense sprinting, which demonstrates that you are actually growing.

*      Why should I drink milk?
- The Dutch are the tallest giants in the world because it’s believed that they consume vast amounts of milk and have the best pre-natal care in the world. For complete details about the Dutch diet, click here!

*      What are growth genes?
- “Growth gene” is the term that height seekers use to illustrate that when you’re undergoing intense stress such as sprinting/running, your body will produce these growth genes which will be activated in order to trigger a transformation (height growth).

*      Is it easier to grow the shinbone (lower legs) or the lumbar spine?
- Currently, we don't have the true answer for that; however, based on recent success stories, it appears that your shin bone is capable of quick & permanent growth. Growing the spine can be tricky because once your spine compresses, you're back to the original height. But we're working on another newly modified Lumbar routine

*      In your last website update, you said that biking may be the best & safe way to produce growth hormones.. I bought a stationary bicycle already.. and now, you're saying that sprinting or vigorous running may be even better for growth. Who’s gonna pay for my bike since I bought it already?
- Biking may be a great way to tweak out HGH production if done vigorously. Biking is not considered a high-impact exercise which means that your legs don’t come in contact with the ground; therefore, you’re less likely to get any microfractures in the legs. In other words, biking may be included in the Lumbar routine to lengthen the lumbar spine… but biking is NOT effective if your goal is to grow longer legs.

Thus, with the new Shinbone routine, it’s recommended that one should do more intense sprinting/running because microfractures will only be created this way.

*      Is it possible to produce lots of growth hormones with intense biking routine?
- Yes, cycling can significantly stimulate HGH production… however, microfractures are unlikely to occur.

*      Can I do both sitting with ankle weights during the day and sleeping with ankle weights at night?
- Yes, you can do that.. but remember that your #1 priority is sprinting/running.. because if your sprinting/running isn’t vigorous enough, NO growth will occur because there’s a lack of HGH & microfractures.

So, do not be surprised if you sit with 30 lb ankle weights (each leg) for 5 hours everyday and still have not grown any centimeter… why? Because your sprinting/running isn’t intense enough.

*      Should I jog at a moderate speed for 30 minutes non-stop? what about 1 hour?
- According to Vulcrum, a longer duration will NOT do any good. Vulcrum initially tried moderate running for 1 month but failed to grow anything since it wasn’t vigorous enough. Therefore, jogging or running at a mild-moderate speed over a long period of time (e.g, 30 or 60 minutes) may produce microfractures; however, such speed is NOT enough to stimulate a transformation. In order for a transformation to occur, it's highly recommended that experimenters should run at their top speed. Why? because when sprinting at 100% or top speed, there'll be an increase of 501% in HGH, which will help to turn on the growth genes to stimulate the transformation of tissues, joints, & bones.

*      Can I do intense jumping or plyometrics to cause more microfractures?
- Yes, but remember to be very intense or vigorous. For instance, do 1,000 jumps in the morning and another 1,000 jumps before bedtime. Also, you should still dedicate to intense sprinting because this is the ONLY way to quickly & successfully tweak out the maximum HGH production.

*      Are there any proof or scientific studies which prove that sprinting can significantly increase growth hormones?
- Yes

Article #1: The 6 second sprint method did move HGH some, but didn't come close to the body's potential to release this powerful hormone. The 30 second all-out effort sprint experiment increased HGH by 530% over resting baseline and 450% over the lesser intensity sprint.

Exercise is a potent stimulus for the release of human growth hormone (hGH), but the time course of the hGH response to sprint exercise has not been studied. The aim of the present study was to determine the time course of the hGH response to a 6 s and a 30 s maximal sprint on a cycle ergometer. Nine males completed two trials, on one occasion performing a single 6 s sprint and on another a single 30 s sprint. They then rested on a couch for 4 h while blood samples were obtained. Three of the participants completed a further control trial involving no exercise. Metabolic responses were greater after the 30 s sprint than after the 6 s sprint. The highest measured mean serum hGH concentrations after the 30 s sprint were more than 450% greater than after the 6 s sprint (18.5 +/- 3.1 vs 4.0 +/- 1.5 microg l(-1), P < 0.05). Serum hGH also remained elevated for 90-120 min after the 30 s sprint compared with approximately 60 min after the 6 s sprint. There was a large inter-individual variation in the hGH response to the 30 s sprint. In the control trial, serum hGH concentrations were not elevated above baseline at any time. It would appear that the duration of a bout of maximal sprint exercise determines the magnitude of the hGH response, although the mechanism for this is still unclear.

Article #2: The purpose of the present study was to examine the growth hormone (GH) response to treadmill sprinting in male (M) and female (F) sprint- and endurance-trained athletes. A group of 11 sprint-trained (ST; 6M, 5F) and 12 endurance-trained (ET; 6M, 6F) athletes performed a maximal 30-s sprint on a nonmotorized treadmill. Peak power and mean power expressed in watts or in watts per kilogram body mass were higher in ST than in ET (P < 0.01) and in the men compared to the women (P < 0.01). Serum GH was greater in ST than in ET athletes, but was not statistically significantly different between the men and the women [mean peak GH: ST 72.4 (SEM 12.5) compared to ET 26.3 (SEM 4.9) mU.1(-1), P < 0.01; men 59.8 (SEM 13.3) compared to the women 35.8 (SEM 7.4) mU.1(-1), n.s.]. Plasma ammonia and blood lactate concentrations were higher and blood pH lower during 1 h of recovery after the sprint in ST compared to ET (all P < 0.01). Multiple log linear regression showed that 82% of the variation in the serum peak GH response was explained by the peak power output and peak blood lactate response to the sprint. As serum GH was still approximately ten times the basal value in ST athletes after 1 h of recovery, it is suggested that the exercise-induced increase in GH could have important physiological effects in this group of athletes, including increased protein synthesis and sparing of protein degradation leading to maintained or increased muscle mass. – Source: [Pubmed]

*      How much can I grow with the Shinbone routine?
- If your sprinting/running is very intense, then you may possibly grow about half an inch (1.3 cm) every 4 to 6 weeks.

If your routine is moderate in intensity, you may possibly grow 1 inch or even NOTHING. It’s difficult to really predict the outcome unless you’ve given all you’ve got.

*      Is there a limit to much I can grow in the legs?
- Eventually, there may be a limit.. but we don’t really know.. Vulcrum & other experimenters believe that they can grow 5 to 6 inches in the shinbone (lower legs). In the near future, these guys may be able to develop another sleeping device to lengthen the thighbone or lumbar spine… but it’s not available at the moment.

*      Can I follow the shinbone routine non-stop for 3 weeks straight.. and then take about 5 or 7 days off to rest for healing.. can I do this?
- According to Vulcrum, he sometimes takes days off… he would sometimes take a day off every week… or at times, he would follow the routine for 3 weeks straight and take 1 week off… Or, if necessary, he even takes 1 month off for healing. In summary, always listen to your body! .. If your legs are in persistent pain, then take a few days off and then resume the vigorous routine.

Whatever the case may be, if your body can handle such extreme stress from sprinting, then continue the Shinbone routine for weeks without taking any days off.

 

*      With the Shinbone routine, where do most of the growth occur?
- Vulcrum & other experimenters believe that most growth occur in the shinbone or lower legs.

*      I’m a very busy person… I work for 12 hours everyday.. so what routine should I follow?
- Here’s the routine:  you should do very INTENSE sprinting/running for 20 to 25 minutes before bedtime. Your sprinting/running must be so vigorous that you’ll instantly fall asleep. Give it ALL you’ve got, and then go home immediately to sleep with 10 lb ankle weights each leg (total is 20 lbs)..

Obviously, since you’re so busy with work, there’s no time to sit with ankle weights.. therefore, it’s best to sleep w/ ankle wts.

*      Why is it important that I must give it all I’ve got before bedtime?
- Sleeping is very important since 90% of your growth occur at night. Thus, any vigorous exercise before bedtime is MOST important.

Bones 'grow most at night time'
The University of Wisconsin scientists believe the same is true in humans, and say it might explain why children get growing pains at night-time. Their findings appear in the Journal of Pediatric Orthopedics. Bone length was continuously measured by the sensors every 167 seconds for around three weeks. At least 90% of the bone growth occurred when the lambs were asleep or resting. Click here to read the entire article!

*      Does the shinbone growth look normal? Are there any bumps or unusual shape in the shinbone if you were to grow taller?
- According to Vulcrum, his lower legs are longer than before since growing more than 2.5 inches. His legs are in normal shape and size.

*      How long should I spend daily on sprinting/running?
-
It all depends… You can do some sprinting for 5 to 15 minutes (divided sessions) in the morning, and another 5-15 minutes in evening…. Remember to triple your intensity before bedtime since it’s extremely important to create the most microfractures & HGH production prior to sleeping. Therefore, spend 10-20 minutes before bedtime on sprinting/running at 100% maximum intensity. You may choose to take L-arginine/L-lysine after the sprinting exercise and go to sleep immediately for maximum HGH secretion.

*      Where I can purchase some ankle weights?
- Go to Wal-mart. The manufacturer is Athletic Works. I got mine for only $20 at Wal-mart. These ankle weights are amazing & comfy. I personally own 4 pairs of Athletic Works ankle weights. Or, visit sporting goods store to purchase them.. or, Google with keywords “ankle weights”.

*      I’m 5 feet 5.. and I’ve been sleeping with 12 lb ankle weights each leg.. it’s hard to sleep because I feel quite uncomfortable. Help?
- Try to reduce the weights… go slow.. try 8 lb each leg first and see what happens.. Increase the weights a few weights as you’ll get used to it along the way. Also, to fall asleep quicker, sprint or run very hard before bedtime so that you’ll be very tired.

*      What’s the most difficult thing about the shinbone routine?
- Sitting or sleeping with ankle weights is very easy to do. However, sprinting/running can be very difficult at first because it’s very tiring and stressful. If you really care about growing taller, then you would risk everything to accomplish this.

*      How can I sleep with 10 lb ankle weights (each leg) for 8 hours straight? .. don’t it feel uncomfortable?
- If your sprinting or running were vigorous enough, you’ll be very tired that you won’t even feel any pain in the legs. In other words, do INTENSE sprinting or running before bedtime and immediately go home to sleep with ankle weights for 8 hours.

*      I heard that there’s a Sprint 8 Workout by Phil Campbell, can I get more meat on this?
-
Click here for details!

You can follow Phil’s sprint workout if you like.. but you can still develop your own sprinting routine – remember to give it all!

*      I can’t sleep with the ankle weights because I tend to wake up in the middle of the night..what should I do?
- You must increase the intensity of your sprinting/running so that you’ll be extremely fatigue. Give it all you’ve got so that microfractures will be created.

*      I did the shinbone routine for 1 month.. but haven’t grown any 0.5 or 1 cm.. why?
- If you don’t increase the intensity of your sprinting/running, chances are you will NEVER grow a centimeter.

*      Why do most height seekers fail to grow taller?

- “That’s your problem George. You want results but you never want to get your hands dirty.” – Jack Bauer, CTU agent (FOX’s 24)

Let’s take our friend Jack Bauer for example… what Jack said to George couldn’t be any clearer… there is an amazing similarity between the success of growing taller and the capture of the bad guys… everyone wants to grow taller, but no one wants to get their hands dirty… no one wants to give it their all.. no one is willing to undergo a major transformation by sprinting or running like a crazy animal. The sad part is that.. if you were to give only 80% of your maximum potential in sprinting/running, you are highly UNLIKELY to achieve any growth.

*      When is the BEST time to sleep with ankle weights?
- ALWAYS sleep with ankle weights after doing intense sprinting/running. Why? Because microfractures will be created after the intense exercise, and sleeping w/ ankle weights will enhance the healing process. For example:

9PM
-   Sprinting/running for 10-15 minutes
9:15PM -  Go home immediately… clean the sweats with a towel.. take a 4-minute break to cool down.
9:20PM – Sleep with 10 lb ankle weights (each leg) for 8 to 10 hours straight.

*      Why is it so IMPORTANT to sit or sleep with ankle weights immediately after sprinting/running?
- Again, microfractures will be created after sprinting/running and therefore sitting or sleeping with ankle weights right after is MOST EFFECTIVE!

*      I don’t know if I can keep up with sprinting/running.. it’s very tiring and I feel very overwhelmed with the rush of sweats & hormones racing through my mind & body.. my question is, if I were to give only 80% of my maximum potential in sprinting/running, will I be able to achieve any growth?
-
Unfortunately, if growing taller is so easy, then humans would all stand taller than the dinosaurs… what we’re trying to say is, if you fail to give it ALL YOU’VE GOT, you will not be able to undergo a major transformation in height growth.

*      If I didn’t do any sprinting/running… can I just sit or sleep with ankle weights?
- Sky and 22 of his experimenters failed to grow taller with the old Shinbone routine because during the 3 months + 3 week period, they did not engage in any vigorous activities. As a result, they did NOT grow any centimeter.

So, do NOT repeat the same mistake that Sky and his experimenters did… always, always, always do INTENSE sprinting/running first, and then sit or sleep with ankle weights.

*      I did some sprinting/running for 15 minutes… but I didn’t have a good sweat.. in other words, I was slacking off and my exercise wasn’t intense as I thought it was gonna be.. can I just sleep with ankle weights right after?
- If your sprinting/running was not intense, then do NOT bother sitting or sleeping with ankle weights because it is USELESS!!

*      Should I sit or sleep with ankle weights?
- Scenario #1:  If you’re busy with school or work, then we would recommend that you should focus your energy on intense sprinting/running a few times in the daytime.. and sleep with ankle weights at night.
For example:
8AM -  sprinting/running for 10-15 minutes
5PM -  sprinting/running for 10-15 minutes
11PM -  sprinting/running for 20 minutes
11:22PM -  sleep with 10 lb ankle weights (each leg) for 8 to 10 hours straight

- Scenario #2:  If you have a habit of sleeping on your stomach or on the side, then it’s impossible to sleep with ankle weights.. Therefore, we would recommend that you should you should focus your energy on intense sprinting/running a few times in the daytime.. and sit with ankle weights immediately after

*      I'm 16 years old... I didn't grow any centimeter in the past year and fear that my growth plates are about to close.. should I follow your shin bone routine?
- We're not sure. Since you're still growing, you may choose NOT to follow the shinbone routine. If you're under 16 years of age, you may choose to do INTENSE sprint training & running daily.. we repeat, give it all you've got and do very INTENSE sprinting. Also, sleep at least 10 hours every night and drink 5 to 6 glasses of milk daily. By doing intense sprint training, you're forcing your body to undergo a transformation which may possibly trigger another growth spurt - just like how Vulcrum grew more than 2 inches in 4 months. If haven't seen any growth in 2 months, then you may choose to follow the shinbone routine.

*      I'm 17 years old.. and my cousin is 16... can I follow the shinbone routine right away?
- It's up to you. If still hesitating, then wait for other experimenter results to be posted by late August '06.

*      Vulcrum is a 15 year-old kid who grew 2.5 inches in 5 months by doing INTENSE sprint training & running & sleeping with 10 lb ankle weights (each leg)... is this just a growth spurt?
- We're not sure.. However, there's a very REAL connection between Vulcrum's growth and his intense height routine. There is just so much growth hormone production as a result of Vulcrum's intense routine which may possibly explain why his growth has been so rapid. Such intense training may trigger another growth spurt.. but we don't know. That's why Sky is going to prove it with his routine.

*      Are you guys trying to convince us to follow the Shin Bone routine?
- If you're a believer, then follow the Shin bone routine.. If not, then wait for Sky's before/after pictures to be posted coming late August 2006.

*      After doing a few intense sprints.. I get a headache & feel very dizzy.. what should I do?
- If you get a mild headache, then sit or lie down, drink some water, keep focus and relax for 5 minutes or more.

*      After doing some sprints, I feel like throwing up… I sometimes vomit. Can you help?
- ALWAYS eat small meals. Also, you should eat food at least 4 hours before your sprinting/running exercise. After doing a few sprints, only sip a bit of water but NEVER drink too much.. drinking too much water will result in nausea & vomiting.

*      What are some rare or very serious side effects that associate with the Shin Bone routine?
- Some RARE & serious side effects include:  persistent knee pain, persistent joint pain, & disproportional legs

*      Let's say that I've done the shinbone routine for close to 3 months and have gained 1 full inch in permanent height.. however, it appears that my legs are disproportional because I limp a little bit.. how can I fix this problem?
- You may get disproportional legs if you fail to follow the tips as described above. However, one way to fix this problem is to use MORE weights on the shorter leg. For example, if you left leg is shorter than your right leg… then sleep with 10 lb ankle weights on the left leg, and sleep with 2 lb ankle weight (or don’t use any weights) on the right leg. Continue to do this for several weeks or when you feel that both legs are balanced. When the legs are proportional, then resume to your normal routine (using the same amount of weights on both legs).

*      I don't want to take L-arginine/L-lysine.. I don't think that it is safe to take anything orally. Am I correct on this?
- We're not sure if you really need L-arginine/L-lysine. If you already did intense sprinting, then there may not be a need to take these supplements; however, taking them may boost further HGH (our theory). If you really want to try out L-arginine/L-lysine but are afraid of side effects, then you may choose to take L-arginine/L-lysine for 3 months.. test it out and monitor your growth. Take 1500mg L-arginine and 1500mg L-lysine.

Take L-arginine/L-lysine supplement (optional):  Take 1500mg L-arginine and 1500mg L-lysine. Taking this combo supplement before bedtime may trigger a 701% increase in growth hormone secretion. Again, growth hormones help your body to achieve balanced growth.

*      I’m 24 years old.. should I take L-arginine/L-lysine?
- If you’re 24 years old or older, it’s recommended that you should take L-arginine/L-lysine before bedtime for more HGH production. The older you are, the less HGH your body produces.

*      I’m 17 years old.. should I take L-arginine/L-lysine?
- We’re not sure if you need L-arginine/L-lysine since teenagers naturally have more HGH than adults. We need more success stories & results on this subject – so let us know!

*      I don’t really comfortable swallowing pills… why should I take L-arginine/L-lysine?
- If you’re unsure, you may choose to take L-arginine 1500mg and L-lysine 1500mg for 3 months.. Try it for 3 months and let us know your results. In general, you’re highly unlikely to experience any side effects if taking such supplements for less than 6 months.

*      What are the factors that contribute to height growth?
- Sleeping + Piezoelectric + microfractures + growth hormones = proportional height growth

*      How can you be sure that adults must have growth hormones for adequate growth?
- We're not sure. It’s our theory that adults must have growth hormones for a transformation to occur.
