It works just as well at the other end of the spectrum. I just turned 50 and lifting the last few years has has totally saved my health. And testosterone...
It’s 2019 and people are saying lifting “stunts your growth.”
The vast majority of people will never learn, but will always share their ignorance.

Not even 100 years ago this would be called “every day” on a farm. But today people revel in weakness, and shame displays of strength.
-
Too much propaganda out there promoting soy and trying to redefine masculinity. (Like
@Gillette). When I was a little kid, I saw the difference from farm kids who bucked hey and little wimps like me who only played basketball. Farm kids were brute strong. Strength is earned!

mike Tyson carried a log on the shoulders while runningto stunt his growth,to help with his particular boxing style. Most probably that kid is going to burnout. A fully bloomed flower forever withers.!!
-
Yes. He ran with a log on his shoulders. Look up how damaging running is to the spine (among other areas of the body) and then multiply that negative impact by a freaking log. Strength training is not weight lifting.
-
Yes he can lift 220@11.Doesnt mean he can deadlift a 1000@20 and 1800@24.Around 17 he might peak.Better to take it slow and easy.
-
he is taking it slow and easy. you think he just told his kid to go try that? hes been training his own kids forever and is taking them through proper progressions and not letting them sacrifice form for numbers

@MarkSchultzy if you really want to maximize his athleticism potential at this age consider getting him involved in gymnastics and wrestling and limiting serious weight training for post-puberty.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

Impressive, but he's still only doing a partial lift. Have him use a bar for his size with the handles inside the frame.

I always thought Lifting weights as a child risked stunting the child’s potential height?

my older brother shrunk 2-3 inches from weight lifting to much when he was still growing. me and my little brother both grew to 6.3 and 6.4 not weight lifting, while he went from 6.1 to 5.10 so be careful.

Weightlifting increases natural production of HGH. Not exactly a recipe for stunted growth
