Hi . 1. Your height has more or less stabilised and will not increase after this age. 2. Going to gym will not affect your height in any way. 3. Doing gym exercises will help you reduce your weight and increase muscles, which is good for you. 4. In gym spend 70% of time doing aerobic/cardio exercises like treadmill, X-trainer, cycling and skipping. Maximum fat is burnt in these exercises. 5. Other 30% time in weights and lifts + abs exercises. Stay fit stay healthy. All the best
