Yeah, source? I lifted extensively in my youth, I still hold records. My brothers are both over 6'5 I'm 5'8 neither one of them was any where near as strong as me. They had a different mother. You cannot increase height through lifting.

I don’t know I read your source I’ll admit it’s evidence but I’m still skeptical.
