No, lifting will not stunt your growth as the myth grows. Just make sure you do it correctly, and get supervision at first. There are too many benefits of lifting to not do it when young.
No. Not at all. It is a wrong myth. Arnold Schwarzenegger started lifting weights when he was 14 yrs old. Do you think he is small?

It actually is okay to lift weights at your age. I am a 14 year old girl and i bench press a bunch of weights and i have not stunted my growth. Guys are mad to lift weights I'm not suppose to lift weights but i am strong enough to do it. The answer to you is yes.
Absolutely. If you are ages 14 or older, all competitive hockey players lift weights. See related links for more information.
I think about 8-14. Does not stunt growth.
Lift medium weights and stretch your arms daily.
You can lift some weights.... do pushups..... anything that is like exercing.
Keep lifting. Lift consistently, and do not skip. Try to eat lean meats after lifting, and remember: it isn't how much you can lift that ultimately determines strength, you will gain strength even if you lift smaller weights very frequently.
A good recommendation is to play regular sports to develop all-around fitness and coordination. Wait until age sixteen (or fifteen at least) before lifting weights. Because of the skeletal immaturity of a 14-year-old, it is not advisable that they train with weights until a little older.
your growth most likely will not be stunted, as long as you still get about 8 hours of sleep lying down every night
Yes, this is old enough. Lifting will not stunt your growth as the myth grows. Just make sure you do it correctly, and get supervision at first.
