I put my back to a wall. mark with a pencil where my head reaches and than measure it with the long meter this (the yellow one that can reach 2-3 meters I think)

I still haven't begun my yoga routine but you are inspiring me.  I am researching using HGH and may perhaps combine it with yoga to get permanent results.

  This is what I am doing. I was told to do this by a good friend of me who does yoga for about 4 years.

  I believe it will only work on people with bad posture (because I know I didnt really gained more length in my legs... But it surely does decomplress your spine)

How old are you?

I'm guessing 1cm is possible if you've had bad FHP and stiff muscles which prevented you from standing up tall when you measured. It also decompresses the spine, but that is temporarily. You're going to have the same if not better results if you lay down for 35 minutes.

I started a similar program some weeks ago (primarily for health reasons) and my morning height was 180 today. The last time I was measured it was between 178-179.

 Me as well.. I started it in order to improve my flexibility. The height is a bonus (Awsome bonus)

It is not just the decompression but stronger and stretched back muscles will keep your spine in a taller position during the day.

Of course, the gains are minimal but why not do it
