Longer Leg Illusion. Excess fat on your legs can make them look shorter, but when you lose fat, you create the illusion of longer legs. Muscle-building activities that create definition in your legs can make the illusion of longer legs even more powerful. Moreover, sometimes exercise improves posture and reduces muscle tension.
Once you stop growing, though, there's no way to make your legs longer because longer legs require longer bones. Regular exercise can, however, help your legs look leaner, which can create the illusion of longer legs. Exercise can also stave off conditions that cause bone mass to decrease and height to shrink.
