I have tried pilates and it has increased my height. It could also just be a random growth spurt. But seriously... it's good stuff. My friends got me into it.
Stretching is basically what you need, not body building.
Here's a link to a page I found with some good stretches:
http://healthcumfitness.com/best-exercis...rally.html

They're quite simple and quick stretches[10 mins max]. I do them when I wake up and before I sleep. (I think just once a day is good enough though)

I wish you best of luck

No, that's not how genetics work bro.

We dont need to explain a thing,go pick a book by yourself.
If doing leg exercises would increase height then it would have already be known by now.
There is no thing you can do to increase your height normally(you can get some implant in you legs or do some leg surgery to get your legs bigger...)

You are so deluded to increase your height then you wont even listen to ration.
How the fuck can doing leg exercises increase your height?
What are you increasing?Toes muscles to gain some milimeters?How the hell doing leg exercises suddently increase your height by 3 cm?
Thats not how the body works,and this is a troll thread.

op must have checked his height at night than when he first woke up the next day .

I play basketball, im 15y/old and 6'4 soooo, it can only be genetics

Height is not just dependent on genetics guys. It is a combination of different things. Here is a quick list of components that factor into your height:
-genetics
-diet
-diseases/disabilities
-exercises

Some good exercises include:
-Stretching[1-2 times daily][Forward bend, Cobra stretch, pelvic shift... etc]
-Yoga
-Hanging [seriously... just hanging from like a pull-up bar or something] (at least 30 mins a week)
-Pilates [The Hundreds, Scapular Isolations, Breast Stroke Prep]
-Swimming
-Skipping/Jumping
-Playing Basketball[not a coincidence that they're all tall][it's because of the jumping]
-AND SLEEP[ "It is during deep sleep that your growth hormone performs its operation of solidifying and lengthening your bones."]

This was a summary. Read more here if interested: http://healthcumfitness.com/best-exercis...rally.html

Also, about me:
I am a female and I started stretching and doing pilates exercises for a martial arts class. Neither of my parents are tall. I was very short[ 5'1] when starting the class about 8 months ago and am now [5'4]. I however only started stretching twice a day about three weeks ago but I already feel a lot better throughout the day. Before, I would only stretch during class which was twice a week.

No, but it does increase your weight! Please correct me if im not right

No shit it increases weight if you build muscle, unless you fat and turning the fat into muscle.
