The scientific revelation of yoga height increase
Many people have said about the effect of yoga to slim down, but do you know? Yoga can also increase your height. Let's explore the specific scientific reasons!
The scientific revelation of yoga height increase
Muscles pulling the spine can cause changes in human height
During a day and night, people's height usually changes, such as being 1-3 centimeters higher in the morning than at night. This phenomenon is mainly related to the human spine. The human spine is not a straight vertical column, but is composed of vertebral bone gaps one by one, which is flexible and elastic.
In the morning, the muscles are fully rested and relaxed, so that the function of the muscle groups that straighten the spine is enhanced, and the pulled spine is straightened. At this time, the person will grow taller by a few centimeters; at night, the muscles are in a tired state and cannot pull the spine., the curvature of the spine increases, and the person becomes shorter.
In fact, everyone's spine, including the trunk and pelvis, has a certain degree of abnormal curvature. If you can adopt the correct height-increasing yoga posture, you can stretch the deformed bones, thus playing a certain role in height-increasing.
Changes in adult height are also caused by skeletal gaps in the spine and leg bones
There are 206 bones in the human body, and the only thing that determines height is the spine and leg bones, a total of 37 sections. Bone gaps are determined by the associated muscles and ligaments. Changing these 37 gaps can change height. If the compressed part between each vertebra is extended by 1 mm, then the 36 vertebrae will increase by about 3. 6 centimeters, and an average adult can stretch about 3-4 centimeters. However, these bone gaps cannot be changed by forced traction with external force, because while the increase, the joint cartilage, tendons, and ligaments also need to be strengthened.
The result of stretching the instrument can only cause damage to muscles and ligaments, and when the external force is eliminated, the gap will recover, and the height will rebound back to its original height. This is the reason why some friends who work on human body stretchers have fallen sick instead of increasing their height. Relying on magical exercises like yoga, you can strengthen cartilage, tendons, ligaments, etc. while stretching, so that you will not rebound.
Yoga can correct abnormal bending of the human body, affect the muscles and ligaments in bone gaps, enhance the control of bone gaps, and achieve the purpose of increasing the body. (Internship Editor: Wu Jinyu)
