2.0 out of 5 stars
let me save you 30 bucks, July 11, 2005
This review is from: Growing Taller Secrets (Paperback)
Secrets. Growing taller secrets. Want to hear the 'secrets'? Hang from a bar for 20 seconds. Thats the main "secret" to growing taller according to this book. Sure, there are other exercises listed in it - part of a secretive growing taller program. Such secretive exercies as "strech" and "jump". I swear to God. Those are the secrets. For only 30 dollars you too can learn the secrets. I hate you Robert Grand. I hate you so much.
I just saved you 30 bucks.

OK, but, October 27, 2004
This review is from: Growing Taller Secrets (Paperback)
To begin with if you're unsure whether you should get this book, then just don't get it because you're unlikely to persist with the book or to have your mind in the idea state of mind for height increase if you're filled with doubts. Such attitude will just kill any progress you can make.
The bulk of this 53-page book provides several stretching exercises accompanied by imagery, posture, a list of nutrients that may help in releasing the growth hormone, and the effect of fasting and sleep on growth. While the exercises and proper nutrition are certainly good for your health, it is unlikely that you will increase your height unless you engage the power of your imagination.
The author points out that "the most powerful way to grow is to believe you can do it", and this is absolutely true, yet he does not provide much information about this crucial element (that's why I gave it only four stars).
In 1960's, Dr. Milton Erickson, a well known and respected hypnotherapist helped a 20-year-old man to GROW 12 INCHES IN HEIGHT IN THE SPAN OF ONE YEAR - with hypnosis.

If you are already using Robert Grand's program, you can find out how to use hypnosis to accelerate your progress. You can pick any decent book on thorough mind-training.

How great, NOT!!, May 29, 2004
This review is from: Growing Taller Secrets (Paperback)
I have used this book to help me gain 2 feet to my height, 100 pounds of lean muscle, changed my face to look as charming as any model. Too good to be true? Exactly... Anyone can write claims here. But so far we have seen no concrete evidence of any kind, just baseless claims. Do us a favour, at least use computer editing to create a 'decent' fake before after photo on your cover to make your book appear more convincing. After going through forums and discussion sites on the net, I found that only people who were cheated are the ones helpful enough to talk to others, not those who claimed to have seen amazing results. So do you think they really exist? The people who have more common sense have already said it: if this book can really do what it claims, why is it not mentioned by the media or anywhere? If, there really happens to be any useful information in the book, it would already have been the hot topics of discussion in forums all over the net. At 5'3, I believe I am much shorter than most who want to buy this book. I totally understand why we hope to gain that few inches to our height, but do not let these baseless gimmicks cheat you of your money. Waiting for someone to prove me wrong.
