How to get taller by stretching
Touch your toes.
Start every morning by getting out of bed and stretching your back and hamstrings with some toe-touches. This is not recommended for older adults, though, as it compresses the anterior head of the vertebrae, especially in the lumbar region, and could actually make you shorter.
Touching your toes will help to loosen you up first thing in the morning. Doing this stretch will warm up your back muscles.
