Do squats make you shorter? I'm not exactly tall and don't have any inches to spare.
What other exercises besides bench press are that don't compress your spine?

Not unless you have a really weak spine. It may get slightly compressed by squats but it will decompress as you sleep.
Stop using Manlet logic
Stop finding excuses to avoid the squat

>Do squats make you shorter?
Yes, but if you complete the second half of the rep, you will be back to your normal height.
>>36486225
Well I don't know if I have a weak spine or not and like I said I don't have any height to lose.
>>36486336
Time to find out if you have a weak spine then you tremendous faggot
>>36486289
This. Why is everyone so afraid of squats?
>>36486179
This is like thinking if hanging off a tree will make you taller
>>36486388
idk i've read a couple of anecdotal reports of people losing an inch or two from doing squats for a long time.
>>36486373
>>36486289
i don't even workout yet. Just doing some research before I get into it, and this is bugging me a bit. I'd love to have more exercises available besides just the bench m8..

I wouldn't recommend squats to anyone.
I was 5'4 and now I'm 5'3. Squatting decompressed my spine.
Please don't squat.
>>36486894
Fuck off faggot kike.
>>36486179
Bump, ive always wondered about this.
>>36486994
i don't follow

lat pullovers extend your spine and it feels so good after a week of lifting
>>36487010
I lost an inch but then when I started doing weighted pullups I regained my original height.
>>36486301
came here for this
>>36487054
This makes me feel better. I don't have an inch to spare too and I'm happy with my height but any shorter and I'd be pretty upset.
>Tfw weighted pullups are favorite exercise
>>36487054
>lost an inch
see, why is everyone treating me like a troll if this shit actually happens to people.
And interesting about the weighted pullups, thanks.

You are a faggot, kouhai. Squats don't make you shorter. If anything, they could make you microns taller because they work your spinal erectors some.

this guy says they do
>>36486179
Just buy a back rack and hang upside down for 15 minutes a day, when squats. Hell, buy it and do it anyway..that shit will decompress your spine almost instantly.
I always strap myself and use it at sports stores that have it, real quick, and feel great afterwords.

5'11 is the official height of the Jews.
You're a Jew
>>36487133
proof
>>36486179
probably a tiny bit, but combine it with yoga and the hormone increases could lead to actually getting taller
>>36487761
>hormone increases
doesnt matter im past the age of growing now..
Yes as it causes spinal compression but you should still do it. Just hang from the pull-up bar with weights to decompress
>>36489278
If I've never done weighted pull ups before will it decompress, or does it have to be compressed to begin with?
>>36487133
you dont know what your talking about shut the fuck up
>>36487183
He also says that if you stretch, you'll get your height back if not get even a bit taller
>>36487262
I thought that was 9'11
