Ok so Im only 13 years old 5 foot 8 1/2 and 160 pounds. Im just naturally tall, i was tall when i was in like every grade. I already developed hair (like pit hair and stuff.) My friends always told me im gunna stop growing soon. My mom is 5'4 and my dad is 5'10. Can anyone tell me from 13 years old to when they think ill stop growing. for example (13- 18 etc.)

Should i be scared about this? What age will i actually get bigger and more muscular?

  1. people are different, and a lot depends on your genes. It was believed that people grow till 18 -21, new studies show that the majority of people grow till they are 30, though not so drasctic and so evidenly as a teenagers (they may grown 1 cm more, for example).

    If you want to get more muscular, you should run, lift weight in moderation and eat lean protein.

    You can calculate your future height with this height predictor, based

    on gender and parents' height:

  2. Guys usually stop getting taller at 18-21

    and girls usually stop growing around 16-18.


  3. I think you will get taller because after all, you don't stop growing until you're around 17-ish.

    My mom is only 5 feet tall and my dad is 5'11", and my brother is 16 and he's 5'11".  I have the same worries as you, but I'm a girl, so I stop growing before you do. :/
