Hey everybody. Sorry I didn't know where to post this.
I am 14 years old and I have been working out for almost a year now. I spend at least 2 hours a day at the gym, not including cardiovascular.
A lot of people say that weight lifting stunts your growth. Is that true? I am pretty short, around 5 foot 2. Whenever I ask people how to get taller they always say its genetics, drink milk, and stretch. They also tell me that I shouldn't worry about it now since I am only 14. What gets you taller?
I have heard that deadlifting stunts your growth a lot but I don't do dead lifting at all. It would take me a while to name all the excersizes I do but I work out my calfs, traps, biceps, triceps, abs, etc. I am one of the strongest freshman in my school, I can bench 175 and curl 35's. Is it good for me to keep working out? Will I stop growing if I continue? Thanks,
sonNY
