I was watching Donny Deutch last night with Jose Canseco on it, and he mentioned he went from 5'10 and under 200 lbs to 6'4 and 260. Donny looked shocked and said "you had an height increase?" and Jose replied "yes people can grow taller if you're underdeveloped".
Does anyone know when Jose said in his book he started taking steroids? I think this shows that growth hormone is a big helper in height increase (don't do steroids though!)
Usually baseball players add 2 inches to their profile height, but theres no way he was 5'10" before he took roids/hgh.
But to compare... this twin brother is listed as 6'2"

He said it himself

He said he was 5'10 and when he took roids he shot up. I figured he may haven taken them at 20-21 because he started taking them in the minors (he claims) and shot up.
I remember a forum member on Utah's forum named 'delisi' who posted here only once that said he was going to try steroids because some of his friends took them their senior year of college. I've also read stories on bodybuilding forum about growing taller as a side effect. Jedi outcast also confirmed this in what he said were documented stories and said that most probably didn't notice because they were paying so much attention to getting bigger and not taller.
I have no idea if this has anything to do with it because professional athletes' stats are often inflated, but did anyone see this in Sports Illustrated(the issue with Barry Bonds on the cover)
"According to team media guides, which are often imprecise, Bonds has grown one inch in height and gained 43 pounds since his rookie year of 1986. In 2004, the Giants reported his weight as 228, but sources familiar with Bonds say he was heavier. Bonds himself has claimed all the weight gain is muscle, not fat. In '97, when the Giants reported that he weighed 206, Bonds told USA Today that his body fat was an extraordinarily low 8%. In '02, when Bonds's weight was listed at 228, Greg Anderson told The New York Times Magazine that Bonds's body fat was even lower: 6.2%."
yeah I had steroids for height increase specifically(winstrol), my endocrine doctor gave them to me,

yeah delsi was crazy, he took a ton of different supplement pills, and had a really exhaustive routine, if i remember he gained 2 inches within a few months. But i was always kinda scared of the amount of supps he took.

did you take winni for height increase?? never heard of that before.. what kind of amount, then? for how long? did you grow any?
DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY ON INTERNET HEIGHT SCAMS - 99% OF THEM DON'T WORK - - YOGA STYLE STRETCHING, KICKING, HANGING & EXERCISES ARE THE ONLY WAY TO INCREASE YOUR HEIGHT IF YOU ARE AN ADULT (OR RISKY, EXPENSIVE SURGERY!) WE'VE RESEARCHED EVERYTHING AND CAN TELL YOU WHAT'S A SCAM AND WHAT IS WORTH CONSIDERING. IF THESE SO CALLED "MIRACLE" PRODUCTS ADVERTISED BY THESE INTERNET COMPANIES WORKED, THEY WOULD BE ON BILLBOARDS, TELEVISION AND THE RADIO AND WOULD BE KNOWN WORLDWIDE!!!!!
