I've been working out since June 2005. I'm 14 years old (15 in August), and in the year and three quarters since then, i have only grown between two and three inches...i am really worried b/c im only about 5'9" and b/c i play basketball, i kinda need to be a bit taller.
Does weight lifting/training/strength training stunt your growth?
No, lifting weights will not stunt growth. This is a myth propogated by people who only know what they've heard. Many professional bodybuilders and powerlifters started at a very young age and they are plenty tall enough.
Your height is determined primarily by genetics and there's little you can do about it unfortunately.
Reply:no, it doesn't...there never has been any medical evidence that shows otherwise.
Reply:I think i remember some1 telling me that, but i never knew if it was true
