Workout routine to make you taller

GYMBOX, the fitness chain, has developed the first workout scientifically proven to increase height; this new class guarantees to make gym-goers taller – or their money back.

The ‘A-GROW-BICS’ workout promises to help the vertically challenged grow taller by the end of the six week course and is led by GYMBOX trainer Pierre Pozzuto, who grew 3.15cm whilst devising the class.

Grounded in science, A-GROW-BICS induces the Human Growth Hormone (HGH) and includes carefully regulated sessions on a 15^th century-inspired stretching rack to help people reach their true height potential.

Pierre Pozzuto , GYMBOX trainer and the world’s first and only A-GROW-BICS instructor said; “At 5ft 7inches I wasn’t the biggest guy in the world so jumped at the chance to lead A-Grow-Bics. I’m now just shy of 5ft 9inches and living proof that by following some simple yet effective techniques it is possible to grow taller.”

As well as stretching participants gradually on the rack throughout the course, A-GROW-BICS incorporates a range of other proven scientific techniques designed to induce growth, including:

Inversion exercises - including hanging upside down from the feet, inducing spinal decompression which stimulates growth by increasing the fluid capacity in the spinal disks
Repeat sprinting - causing microfractures in the bones that repair in a week encouraging them to strengthen and remould whilst growing at the same time
Pilates - to improve posture and spinal alignment
Resistance exercises - to build stability and stretch muscle fibres
High intensity cardio - encouraging the release of HGH
Yoga - to lengthen the spine and aid muscle elongation

Throughout Pierre’s six week course participants’ height will be tracked at the start of each session to measure their progress, with customers guaranteed a full refund on the course’s £200 sign-up fee if they fail to grow sufficiently by the end of the course. GYMBOX expect the growth to be anything up to two centimetres by the end of the six weeks.

Richard Hilton, MD of GYMBOX, said: “People join our gyms for all sorts of reasons, but one of the more unusual requests our trainers often receive is for exercises to aid growth. While we knew this would be a tall order, we set about working with our team of highly skilled fitness trainers to develop A-GROW-BICS. When we developed the stretch rack and exercises and witnessed Pierre grow by almost one and a half inches, we knew we were onto something. We are so confident that this class is head and shoulders above the rest that we guarantee all participants will grow by up to two centimetres – if not, we’ll happily give them their money back.”

The six week course will be held at GYMBOX Holborn branch, at a cost of £200 and is bookable via www.gymbox.com or via calling 0845 241 5220
