So did I physically grow a bone?
No.
That's what I thought because I'm 6'1".
Yeah.
But the thing is, why?
Because I've been doing Pilates and functional training and resetting the shoulders back, my posture is much better.
So I'm standing straighter, which gives me an extra inch of height.
So I've actually got taller.
No, I haven't taken huge amounts of growth hormone and suddenly grew when I was 60 years old.
It's just my posture and the way I stand.
There's less curvature to the shoulder.
Yeah.
So you lose a bit of height because when you lift and your pecs get bigger and your lats, your shoulders rotate forward.
You're trying to hunch forward.
So you're sitting a little bit lower.
I didn't even know.
I was like measuring myself.
I thought, wow, that's just because I'm standing straighter and my shoulders are back there.
Lost that...
cervical arch, it's straighter now.
