Does body building effect growth for teens?
November 8th, 2008 | by admin |JC asked:
I’m 16 and want to start body building, but will it affect my body from growing taller? I still want to grow taller, but I also want to have a better body and to stay fit, so I want to go to the gym. What types of weights or postures or positions should I avoid to prevent affecting my boding from growing taller?

For sports you are behind it with bench presses squats curls etc.

it’s a big misconception. nothing wrong about getting fit….just dont take those creatine supplements when ur a teenager. just do it naturally with regular trips to the gym and good protein diet. eat carbs before pumping iron and protein after…cheers!

I grew from 6′ 0″ to about 6′ 5″ from age 16 to 18. If I hadnt been lifting weights, I would have been a beanpole. Workout, lift weights and do it hard because you need to add mass to those muscles which are stretching out and getting skinny!
Do NOT do steroids. Teens that did steroids didnt not develop correctly.
