Lmao this is just sad. Here
I started working out at 13, I was 5'6 at the end of 7th grade. 8th grade I lifted heavy weights for football and I grew to 5'8. Freshman year I took a month or two break then I got back into toning up then lifting really heavy (bench press 225, squat 375, dumbbell curl 55 etc)(and no. I'm not lying. I was a little beefcake 8th grader) and this whole theory is bs. I continued to lift when I got into football and track for high school. And I was 5'11. And even during the time I lifted heavier I'm still growing. I was 5'11 1/2. Lmao. I'm a sophomore now and I'm 6'0. Lifted heavy cus I only weigh 144.4 during football and 136 during track. Almost triple body weight squat. Just use proper form and you'll be fine... Pump some iron.

running puts pressure on your legs 6 to 8 times your body weight. that means that if putting pressure on your joints stunts growth every child who played a sport would end up with some short ass legs. weight lifting will only stunt your growth if you lift with improper form and too much weight so that you damage your joints

Hey, I have read your post and I do believe it may shunt growth. I have just turned 14, I am 6ft 3 and I am into weightlifting, I havn't seen any probems but I do believe that lifting heavy weights will shape your spine or even criple your body if it puts exess strain on it. That being said, it depends on your stature and generally, I wouldn't worry if you do it in moderation. As always, Peace.

I am 14 and I am 6'3 and I have been lifting for about a year now. Nothing happened to me and I am still growing. I wouldn't worry about it.
