19M, 5'1 and 74 kg — need advice on height & fitness

Hey everyone,

I’m 19 years old, 5'1 (155 cm) and currently weigh 74 kg.

I wanted honest advice on two things because I feel a bit confused with all the information online.

First, is there any real way to still increase height at my age? I’ve seen things like stretching, hanging, posture correction, and diet suggestions, but I’m not sure what actually works and what is just a myth.

Second, I want to lose weight and improve my overall physique. I’m currently overweight for my height and want to get leaner, stronger, and more confident.

I’m ready to stay consistent with home workouts, diet, and a proper routine, but I don’t want to waste time on things that don’t actually work.

My goal is to improve my overall appearance, fitness, and confidence.

Would really appreciate practical tips, routines, or real experiences from people who have been in a similar situation
