Nowadays a lot of guys are getting taller, I think it's because they're more into sports than ever before. Girls on the other hand, are getting shorter due to obese and poor nutrition, I've been seeing a lot of this now.
It's pretty much the opposite. Years ago, young boys/men worked alot on the farm, and physical stuff like this, today, the average teenage boy spends most of his time on the computer or in front of the TV.
Just quite a few boys and girls are getting taller, the majority are actually getting wider and smaller due to obesity and junk food.
Yeah, only fewer boys and girls are participating in physical activities helping them grow more. Most young guys nowadays are topping off at around 173-177cm as statistics shown, they should be a little taller like at around 179-182cm, they are decreasing a bit due to obese and not getting enough calcium in their bodies. Females should be no more than a weak 5-10, cause taller ones look kinda mannish and not quite well built. Many guys would rather have petite or kinda tall girls. james says on 13/Jul/10

I lose 1.75 Inches over a day so nearly 2 Inches, Having said that Im well over 6'0 and over 20 stone so that is probably why, Im 6'7 Morning and Just over 6'5 Evening, Say 6'5 then, I give my height as 6'6 rather than saying 6'7 or 6'5, no one ever says anything to me probably because I am large enough anyway.
Heavier and Taller People have potential to lose more height, More weight for your spine to support and compacts faster than if you were lighter, I know some of my mates who are light in weight only lsoe 1/2inch at best and some heavier ones lose on average 0.75- 1.25 inch at least.
Basically a guy who is 6-1 Morning 21 stone and a 6-1 Morning 12.5 stone, The heavier guy will lsoe more heigth over the day imo. Phil says on 1/Jul/10

Honestly, I think the new generation is actually getting wider, not taller, due to poor nutrition. Could be that so many people exaggerate their heights that it distorts perception and because of body proportions as well. Another is because they tell their height with shoes on, they're even making good thick ones, and cause a lot of young people are now growing more hair, probably from all the coffee cause caffeine stimulates the growth of tiny follicles in the scalp. It could also possibly be early puberty. Anon08 says on 14/Jun/10

Average male height hasn't changed very much, one cm at most, maybe they just seem taller is cause many guys are now growing more hair, probably from drinking lots of coffee. A lot of females are definitely decreasing in size, due to obesity and poor diet and it could possibly be that they got their growth spurts earlier. Anonymous says on 13/Jun/10

My Gp told me height and weigth should be measured in Morning, Im about 6'3 on Morning and go to 6'2 flat by evening so I lose a full inch over the day, I am not sure what height to say because Morning Height may be our real height but It seems silly to say my height as 6'2 when most of day I am 6'2- 6'2.5 range anyway, I guess my average Height is 6'2.5?

Rob, when a person has a stocky physique, do you think they give off a taller or shorter appearance? Some say shorter while others say taller. I think taller since it's big due to high levels of fat, it probably depends how they're shaped.

your true height is in the morning after you have recovered from the force of gravity ... thus in the morning you have returned to your normal true height. Anonymous says on 25/May/10
Looking online most things say Morning Height is our real height but I think taking the average of the measurements is best thing to do, Most people probably Just measure once around same time of day to get accurate measurement, If you take your maximum and lowest height just make an average value between the two. k mart says on 15/May/10

You may as well say Morning/ Afternoon instead of Morning Evening, Afternoon we are really at our lowest, A copuple mm's dont matter, I had to have my height measured recently by my Gp this was in the Forenoon around 10am, He said they conduct physicals at this time as the human is normally at thir average height due to variations of height over the day?
Out Of bed height- 193cm- 6'4
Forenoon- 192cm- 6'3.5
Midday/ Afternoon- 191.5cm- 6'3.25
Evening- 191.0-5cm- 6'3.25
I usually say my height as 191cm or 192cm, Take Lowest or Average, I could use both as I am more 191's in the day from Midday etc but when Physicals and stuff take place in Forenoon I am around 192cm and that is my average, Someone asked my height recently and I said 192cm as that is what I measured at by my GP in the Forenoon.

when the guiness book of world records is looking for height records, they measure the people 3 times in one day, to account for the shrinkage thing but many experts say Morning Height is our real height as our back is straight unfortunately it falls fast, I normally take my average measurement, Like I measured in morning 193, Night 191 so I say my height as 192, take the average, This is ok I think.
Physical Exams take place on Morning and some people may measure height with weight on a morning early I guess, There is no official time to measure height I mean if a guy measures 190cm at 11.15am He is not lying if he says he is 190 that guy could be 188-189cm at evening, It depends, some may give their highest heights some lowest, It all depends when you measure, Most People I know didnt even know we lost some height over the day, Even Doctors.

Interesting little piece here it says best time to measure height is during the Forenoon- Normally 2,3,4 hrs after being awake jsut beofre Mid day or around that.
When we say human height we generally refer to a human’s measurement beginning from the foot to the head while standing erect. Getting this measurement is rather tricky since there is a time in a given day when the spine shrinks and a human would lose an inch in height.
Given this fact, it has been determined that the best time to measure the human average height would be during the forenoon. You will also notice that this is also the usual time when doctors would conduct physical examinations. The morning height is usually ignored since it is understood that one would be stretched out of your bed. Anonymous says on 13/Apr/10

I dont beleieve their is an official time to measure your height, not a specific time, I believe you can measure in Morning, Midday, Evening whatever or try all three and then just take your average height or maybe measure in the morning, personally I never did it on an evening or had to at the gym, clinic etc always on the morning sometime.
On Average we lose up to 1/2- 3/4 of an inch over the day so it is hard what height to take really, always measure your height at same time roughly everytime otherwise you would get different readings anyway due to this, Many experts claim Morning height or our height in the Forenoon is our true height, Most doctors etc dont even know we lose a bit of height over the day etc so if you measure at Doctors at 10am that is your height.

Measure your height standing straight, make sure your posture is good, no shoes on, look ahead keep head- eyes level dont look up or down just straight, stand to a wall or a door and keep your heels so they touch off the door or the wall, have your back aganst the wall or door and your legs also and just put where top of scalp on head is to the door or wall and mark it or hold where you got to and measure from floor to where you were on the door or wall etc and give that height.
I would say not to measure your height out of bed or on an evening normally the average is in the forenoon hours- Midday so from 10am- 12pm, Midday as that is the average and also is what height you would be at most of the day so it is better I think, You can measure your height at any time I guess but It is better around Late Morning/ Midday I would say.

Most Height measurements are normally took in the Forenoon, this si the time when Physical examiantions take place and when you get measured when at school, some time in the Morning so it is fair to say that height however it is important I guess to always measure your height at the same time of the day so you can track whether you are growing, otherwise try measuing yourself early on Morning, then early Afternoon, and evening- 6pm and take your average measurement.

Take the Average say you measure between 186-188cm, Say 187cm I guess, always take your height in the forenoon/ Midday, I do not think evening height is accurate as it differs depending on what you do, Your height out of bed is always same range, If you measured 187cm you could just say 6'2 in feet or about 6'2, If asked Just say 6'1 3/4 or about 6'2 otherwise say 187cm, Most people say height in feet but either is fine.

They say the best time to measure your weight is in the morning, preferably just out of bed because your weight fluctuates during the day due to food and activity. Funnily, when it comes to your height, that too fluctuates during the day. well....decreases slightly by 0.75" to 1", yet people say evening height is most accurate?? Something doesn't add up. I think midday or morning height is closer to the truth than evening height. Unless you measure yourself, your hardly going to have a general health check-up at 8 or 9pm at night to see how tall you are. its ridiculous, and its going to change as soon as you sleep again.

your true height should be measured first thing in the morning, Total height loss can be a 1/2 to 3/4 inch at the end of the day, when you sleep your body expands back to the correct size, so in the A.M. you are standing tall again so your morning height right out of bed is Your True height.

With height I dont beleive a lot of people lie some may add a bit but who knows, some may give their height out of bed I guess whcih is ok, as giving it midday is, or evening I guess, I personally always give my Forenoon height and get the average otherwise as that seems ok anyway, It just depends what time of day everyone measures their height, Most people measure when they want and are not aware wel can lose to 3/4 of inch over the day, Most dont know this I bet.

I agree with certain others that Morning Height is a fairer assessment of our height than Evening height and Midday height is ok, generally the average and what we are mostly, I say this becasue in the morning I am alwasy the same height exactly and on the evening it can differ, If I am sittinga around etc it doesnt differ too much but when I stand around all day etc I can lose up to a full inch easy, I think the most I lose is a full inch- 2.5- 3cm so I think our Morning/ Midday height is the height we shoudl claim.

Yes, Jon taht is correct I am 192cm on Morning, and drop to 189 on average I say my height is 190cm, the average, as that is what they do on Guiness world book of records take your average ehigth on the day, I beleive this can also be negative a bit too in terms of if you sit around or lay aroudn in day you may be more level and if you work all day, stand all day, lift you would be smaller so it has good and bad points, i believe otherwise it is ok to take your morning height if you measure in the forenoon not straight out of bed but it is ok. Jon 183cm says on 2/Mar/10
paul86... you would usually drop about 2cm during the day. so if your 5'9.75" (177cm) by evening, then morning would be 5'10.5" (179cm) Anonymous says on 2/Mar/10
Your height should always be measured without shoes which is obvious, preferably barefoot but if you ahev thin socks on is ok as it wouldnt give you anything, but never shoes, and most height measurements should be done in the forenoon- before midday, this is when most physicals take place and when getting measured at school etc. paul86 says on 18/Feb/10

Rob, i was searching online about ways to get taller after the age of 18. I found a wesbite where basically 5 college kids conduct experiments over long periods of time to see if they will actually get taller. From what I've read, if you are willing to put in 2 hours a day for a year, you can gain around 2 inches of height. For this experiment, they do stretches and exercises that increase the growth of the lumbar cartilage. The cartilage grows and expands resulting in a longer spine. You should take a look and see if it makes sense. Just search easyheight on any search engine. Let me know what you and everybody else thinks. I might try it. dmeyer says on 26/Jan/10

To Nick HUGH , hi your shoe size is 46-46,5 11.5-12 usa, and your foot size [Foot lenght? ] is 29.8 cm ?Something does not fit, the length of insole shoe size 11.5-12 U.S., is 294-29,8 cm length, and longer than your foot interior of the shoe, I do not think could not even walk without feeling pain in one dimension 11 .5 To 12 feet long used by 29.8 cm, 29.8 cm foot length is a full shoe size 13 U.S., or even 14 U.S. for more convenience Anonymus says on 21/Jan/10

mId... my evening height is 0.6cm from 6'0. Im going by my day height which is roughly 183cm. I probably shouldnt, but they say going by your day height or evening height is best. in school they measure students at around midday and say that is your height, but 0.25, 0.5 and 0.75 are merely fractional estimates to what a person's height actually is, but in the real world I don't think being a quarter inch from your height is going to matter or be noticed by the public eye, unless you meet Rob at an event :P. But fair enough, your right in saying that im under 182.88cm by evening, in which case 6ft is not legit for me. REX6 says on 3/Jan/10

I'd bet a high number of celebs are actually 1/4" less than listed. There are so many 6' guys listed and few 5'11.75" guys, but in reality, they should be about equal. mId says on 31/Dec/09
Jon 182.2: <-- see what I did there ;) so you don't go by evening height? 182.2? because that's almost a whole centimeter away from 6'. besides.. if you lift heavy stuff or something in the morning you would go down to that height pretty fast.. everybody can take their height when they want.. but I think a legit 6' footer never goes under 182.88. if everybody around 182 said 6' then why are there celebs here at 5'11.75? do this site mean that they can go even lower at night? that's one problem I have with this site.. you don't really know if the celebs are listed by their highest, average or evening height.. I would like to think the height you never go under is your true height and the rest (afternoon, morning etc) are just bonus. btw.. sorry for teasing and giving you a hard time.. you are more legit 6' than most people who claim it ;) aliaksander says on 30/Dec/09
hey there rob,first when i saw this page i thought that this people who are visiting this page are people without life.but its really great,respect.i love it so much.thanks for making it rob.and i have a little question and please answer me.here on balkan many people lie about their heights.and im really interested in mine true height.
i always measure myself afternoon or in the evening when im at home.i lay on the floor and stretch and im about 184cm.but in the morning im about a cm taller.and when people ask me how tall i am i say around 185 because when i see them im always in shoes.so,can i say im aroun 185cm tall?and im 18 years old.and one more question,i have 82kilos,is it ok?
please answer,thanks :)
[Editor Rob: I would just be honest and say about 184cm, although lying on the floor you might be measuring a little more. That's hard measuring on the floor...] Jon 183cm says on 30/Dec/09
mId... thanks for the comment lol. id probably agree at not being fully 6', but considering 6' is 182.88cm and im 182.9cm, everyone says im 6' anyway :/.
G.G... your probably right. most people these days don't reach their full potential height anyway, despite people fully stopping their growth at 21 yrs old. they say your wingspan is your final height so i think you will probably reach it at the age you are. but 6' is enough for me i think :) Phil says on 28/Dec/09

The length of a person's foot is approximately 15 percent of his or her height.
Use this proporation for your calculations: 15/100 = Length of Foot/x (person's height)
This works best on a full grown individual for the ratio of body parts is slightly different in growing children.

Phil, true. I'll lose 1/4 inch within 1/2 hour and 1/2 inch 1-2 hours being up. You can go by midday height which will be very close to your evening height anyway.
They say true weight is first thing in the morning naked. Phil says on 16/Aug/09
True height is evening height in my opinion because you can lose about 3/8 to a 1/2 inch of your morning height within a half-hour or a full hour. Most of the time, you're really closer to your evening height anyway.
True weight is probably morning weight because it is usually constant while the evening weight can fluctuate a bit. 198 cm. from Sweden. says on 14/Aug/09

Rob,
I'm 5'8 - 5'8.5 in the morning. During the afternoon and night I always go as low as 5'7 or even a tad lower. I'm currently on the weight loss track. Will that effect my evening height? From what i've read, an inch to an inch and a half (and even a bit more) is a lot to lose throughout the day.
[Editor Rob: 1.5 inches is extreme. Your morning height should be pretty much the same, or within 1/8th of an inch most of the time.] aram x says on 28/Jul/09
How far does that scale go up, Rob? And btw, 5,9" isn't 174.3 cm as you indicated on your scale. 5,9" is 175.25 cm. Sorry if you take this comment as offense. unknown says on 25/Jun/09
Big King, morning height huh? Would like to see that looked at more lol! Alex says on 18/Jun/09
They true weight is first thing in the morning with nothing on. I do it with just boxers which is pretty much nothing or at most 1/4 pound. Its the only weigh to know your real weight and to see how much you flucuate. Doing it with cloths on during different times can throw you off. Andrew says on 16/Jun/09
With my height i'm 5'11 out of bed and 179cm for most of the day. but I sometimes go down to 5'10 flat by the evening. I just claim my height in cms as 179 which I think is fair enough cause if you measured me pretty much any time during the day, the result would be around 179cm.
Also Rob, have you ever heard of laser stature meters? there's some in the shopping centre near me and I tried it, taking my shoes off and standing straight, I got a reading of 179cms. So its accurate.
Have you ever seen one? If you do then I think you should try it and share the results with the site. Andrew says on 16/Jun/09
Hey Rob, is 157 lbs your weight in the morning with light weight clothing, or your highest?
With weight I think you've got to go with morning with light weight clothing because otherwise it varies too much. Andrew says on 16/Jun/09

Rob,I've posted this on on General Heights,but nobody seems to bother to reply me.Well I want your opinion,how tall can I reach before I stop growing? Dad's 5'3.5", Mom's 5'0" , I'm 5'6" or 5'6.5" and 19 years, and my gran dad was quite over 6 feet.Any estimations?I'm really confused....:S
[Editor Rob: I would say you are likely finished growth.] Jon says on 2/Jun/09
interesting.... If thats the case, then maybe your body has two permanent heights for most of your life until gravity takes it toll when your older, hence your morning height and your evening height. hmmm..... Jon says on 1/Jun/09
Rob I have a question.... why is your evening height more commonly used than morning height? Im just wondering because say you were on your feet for more than a day. sayyy.... 2 days straight before bed. surely you would shrink more than an inch? plus, when you rest, your spine restores itself back to its normal state. Even if you slept for 24 hrs or so, you wudnt be any taller in the morning than normal yet, if you were up on your feet for longer, you would be shorter.
[Editor Rob: when I had my trip to NY I had the perfect opportunity to test sleeping and shrinkage.
On the return from NY to Scotland I was up for near 30 hours and still 5ft 8 and 1/8th, with no lying down during any of that time.] k mart says on 1/Jun/09
yes its actually true your morning height is your true real height.. at the end of the day, adults are about 1/2 in to 3/4in shorter than they are during the day.... at night your body expands back to the correct size and in the morning your body has recovered and is back to its corrects size so once again you are standing tall again peteyork says on 27/May/09
Rob, if somebody measures themselves lying down, how accurate is that?
[Editor Rob: it's harder and you might find out your body is a little longer.] Jon says on 25/May/09

Thanx alex. yeah, your right actually because 6' 1/4 is 183.5cm and 6' 1/2 is 184.25 to be precise. but i wake up at 184cm exactly, so maybe nt quite 6'0 1/2 in the morning. still.... thanks! Alex says on 5/May/09
Jon, Well 184cm is closer to 6'0.5 so thats why I thought it was 1.25 inches. Well an inch is common. I lose 3/4, sometimes a full inch depends on what height I wake at. Normally its 6'0.75 out of bed, 6'0 evening. I'd say claim 5'11.5 if I were you. You're a very strong 5'11 or a weak 6'0 since you wake at over 6'0. Jon says on 5/May/09
Its about an inch actually alex. when i wake up im 184cm(6'0.25) and by the evening im 181cm (5'11.25). thanks Rob :) Alex says on 5/May/09
Jon, you lose over an inch of height? Thats kinda a lot. Jon says on 4/May/09
Hey Rob, i have a question. ive taken note of my heights during the day (3 in total) and im just wondering which would be my actual height? because i know about morning height and evening height and how people get mixed up between which is more relevant. but here are mine.....
Morning (out of bed): - 184cm
Daytime 1pm + : - 182cm
Evening (10.30pm): - 181cm
thanks.
[Editor Rob: I think if you measure yourself 182cm at lunchtime that's fine.] Alex says on 1/May/09
Stiffelio, I am not really large boned. My wrists are only 7-7.25 inches around. I am pretty built but that doens't make me large framed. I weigh around 200lbs, give or take 1-2lbs. If I was a large frame I'd weigh more I think. Some do tell me I look big boned. I dont really see it. Stiffelio says on 1/May/09
Alex, yeah you have big feet for your height but judging from the your pictures you are a pretty large framed man, so you are bound to have large feet and hands. Are your feet wide and bony or just long? Alex says on 30/Apr/09
Yea my foot is very big for my height. Either I should be a size 11-12 or be 6'4-6'5 for my foot size, LOL.
Tellem, well boots I actually can wear a 13 sometimes since they run bigger sometimes but all sneakers, shoes I wear a 14.
Phil, thats why I take evening height which I am closest to during the day anyway. I'll lose 1/2 inch kinda fast.
Big King, 6'0-6'0.25 I am most of the day. When I met Rob I was 6'0 1/8 after being up 6 hours then 4-5 hours later I was just 1-2mm under that, still above the 6'0 mark. Depends on the day since I can be 6'0 flat by late afternoon sometimes. I will really go from 6'0.75 out of bed to 6'0.5 within an hour then by midday 6'0.25 max. Phil says on 29/Apr/09
Alex, yeah, either 1/2 or 3/8 is possible. TELLEM says on 29/Apr/09
wow alex size 14? stone cold steve austin wears size 13 boots lol yoyo says on 29/Apr/09
Alex have a shoe US size 14 with just 6ft at less frame.. thats a huge feet.. im 6ft4.5 i had US size 11.5feet.. thats sounds tiny feet to people.. Alex says on 28/Apr/09
Big King, I am 6'0 during the day longer than 6'0.5 or more. I'll hit 6'0 flat by around 5PM and be that height for the rest of the day while 6'0.5 I may only be for an hour during the morning. Alex says on 28/Apr/09
Phil, its possible to lose 1/2 inch within an hour of waking too I think? Alex says on 27/Apr/09
Cool that my full length shot is up here now. I kinda notice my head is very slightly titled but shouldn't make a difference I dont think. Alex says on 27/Apr/09
Big King, its not nonsense. Yes I am 6'0.5 for a bit during the day. But only for a bit and nowhere near enough to claim it. I have always been measured in the 6'0-6'0.25 range from afternoon and on. I've only gotten 6'0.75-6'1 right out of bed and already down to 6'0.5 within 1-2 hours from waking. Phil says on 27/Apr/09
Most of the time, you're usually closer to your evening height than the 1/4 inch below your morning height. Alex says on 22/Apr/09
Rob, can you put the full body shot picture of me getting measured by my name on this page? Thanx. Lenad says on 20/Apr/09
Its a shame Mr R and Frank2 dont show pictures of themselves Alex says on 16/Apr/09
Clay, a lot of girls who are very tall say like 5'`0 or taller will round down or just even downgrade. Plenty of girls who are 5'11 and change will simply say just 5'11, some may even try to get away with 5'10. They wanna avoid saying anything close or at 6'0. Alex says on 14/Apr/09
Big King, Jenny looked a weakish 5'9 in person. Shes hit 5'9 or slightly over out of bed but most of the day is no more than 5'8.5. She looked about 5'8.5 in person which she was measured at.
Clay, yea I guess. I have the proportions to look 6'1-6'2 though I am not and I hit just under 6'1 out of bed. I was still a couple mm over 6'0 and I was up for 10-11 hours but wasn't doing any heavy lifting but I was walking a lot that day. Funny morg still thinks I am 12 stone, LOL. I weighed 201 yesterday in the morning which is about 14.5 stone. Clay says on 13/Apr/09
So that goes by my theory that girls do the opposite of guys and give their height lower than what it is! lol.
Alex - you physically look taller and longer proportioned than some of my friends I've measured at 6'0 before. I guess its just tough to tell on a computer screen. They are weak 6'er's you're a very strong one. ER. says on 12/Apr/09
Rob, where does one purchase a stadiometer like yours? And how much does it cost? The one's I've come across have all been in the 100$-range. A little more than I would wanna spend on one.
[Editor Rob: The portable one I have is basically same - except the platter which isn't circular - as Seca 214 Portable Stadiometer, type that in google, but I didn't see it anywhere as low as $100, more $130.] Alex says on 11/Apr/09
Rob, you going to change any of the heights here a bit? I think I am listed fair here.
[Editor Rob: I hadn't updated mine or added photos yet but I might include ranges, I'll get round to this page.] Phil says on 8/Apr/09
I would say 185 cm is a strong 6'0. 185 cm = 6'0 7/8" But Alex says he measures 6'0.75 in the morning. I call that a solid 6'0. Alex says on 8/Apr/09
Lenad, I mostly measure 6'0.75 out of bed, at times I probably can hit 6'1 flat out of bed. I think you gotta hit 6'1-6'1.25 consistant out of bed to be considered a weak 6'1. I just am a strong 6'0. Lenad says on 8/Apr/09
If Alex measures at 185cm out of bed doesnt that make you a weak 6'1? Alex says on 7/Apr/09
If you look at the photo it can appear like I am almost 4 inches taller. He is leaning but also the photo is very slightly titled in my favor from the guy who took the picture. It was 2 inches when he stood up straight I felt. The guy behind me in line said after that I was def taller so it was clear enough. 5'10 1/2 is a slim possibility for him but it would pushing it a bit. nick says on 6/Apr/09
actually it is likely 2 inches but it can be 1.75 just because he slouching and leaning in. I know that alex is a strong 6ft guy and kurt is a strong 5'10 guy. Alex says on 6/Apr/09
Phil, exactly.
Big King, my actual height is 6'0-6'0.25. Yesterday Rob measured me at 6'0 1/8 after being up for 6 hours and on my feet for sometime so I'd only be 6'0.5 after a few hours of being up and 6'0.75 out of bed. I can also be 6'0.25 at midday but no more than that. Phil says on 28/Mar/09
Kurt is leaning in towards his left; if he was standing straight, I would see a two inch difference between them. |
