Experts disagree. It is probably best to wait until you are at least 16. Before then, concentrate on all-around coordination, flexibility, and growth by participating in multiple standard sports. Once you begin, be sure to learn and use perfect exercise technique or you are very likely to injure yourself and set back your progress.

An eleven year old does not need to work out yet, because the muscles are not yet fully developed. Only when puberty hits, then a person will start to see muscle improvement. Otherwise, an eleven year old should not lift weights because no major or even minor improvement may occur do to the lack of the development of the muscles.
