Height is a representation of everyone's image, and many people want to grow taller.

Exercise can make people grow taller, but not all exercises can make people grow taller:

1. Sports that are beneficial to height growth: volleyball, basketball, football, ballet, aerobics, stretching gymnastics, skipping rope, and jogging.

2. Exercises that are not conducive to height growth: weightlifting, weight-bearing training, excessive exercise, and exercise that consumes too much energy (marathons, etc.).
