The growth stunt myth.

Hi teens
Many think that weight training at a young age would stunt growth, but I can guarentee you that with proper form and moderate weights your growth plates are safe. I am currently 13yrs old, 5'6 tall and I started lifting a weight of 8kg at the age of 7!!!
This itself shows that weight lifting will not stunt growth.
