Help me pls?

Im a Filipino, 17, 5"8', i want to be taller. I don't really work out but im into street dancing (hip_hop) and cheer sports. I was the tallest guy since i was in prep school until highschool came and i think my growth rate slowed down. And now im in college and i just grew a mere 1/2 inches in 1 year. Can you give me some tips...

Answer:
the guy before me is not being totally honest. there is a chance that you will get taller... men have growth spurts until they are 25. that is the average age that they stop growing!
Without surgery, there is absolutely no proven way to increase your height. Sorry, its just the way it is.
Play basketball. Playing basketball is proven to increase height because players are constantly jumping and stretching.
We all have different growth rates. I think yours is coming to an end, sadly. But yea, play basketball, hang from monkey bars, anything to help you stretch would work xD

btw...I'm Filipino too xDDD
i think Francia l is right.try playing basketball I've heard that it does increase your height
