No scientific evidence indicates that participation in a supervised resistance training program will stunt the growth of children or damage

developing growth plates (21). Childhood may actually be the opportune time to engage in weight-bearing activities that enhance bone

mineral content and density (3). In all likelihood, regular participation in a well-designed resistance training program during the growing

years will have a favorable influence on bone growth and development.

The risks associated with youth resistance training are not greater than other recreational and sport activities in which youth regularly

participate (14,21). Although accidents can happen, the key is to provide qualified instruction in a safe training environment and sensibly

progress the program based on resistance training skill competency. In addition, basic education on weight training room etiquette, in-

dividual goals, and realistic outcomes should be part of youth resistance training programs.

Although there is no evidence-based minimum age for participation in a youth resistance training program, all participants should be

able to accept directions and follow safety rules. Boys and girls younger than 12 years old have participated safely in supervised resis-

tance training programs (14). Generally, when youth are ready for sport participation, approximately ages 7 or 8, they are ready for some

type of resistance training as part of a well-rounded fitness program.

Training-induced gains in muscular strength during childhood are primarily due to neuromuscular adaptations and skill develop- ment. Although boys may develop bigger muscles during the growing years because the effects of anabolic hormones would be op- erant, girls can get stronger throughout childhood and adolescence while gaining all the benefits from resistance training without developing bulky muscles

Regular participation in a well-designed resistance training program offers observable health and fitness value for all children and adolescents. In addition to performance enhancement and injury reduction, resistance training can improve musculoskeletal health, enhance metabolic function, and increase daily physical activity. Resistance training may be particularly beneficial for overweight youth

who often are unwilling and unable to perform prolonged periods of aerobic exercise.

It is unsafe if you don’t have supervision

From last years S&C class it was told that there's no evidence that weight lifting stunts growth.

Potential no, if only body weight Used

they will not but it can help with bone density to prevent osteoporosis

It should be progressive and no weight used at 12

bhp479 — 2025-10-06 05:54:42 UTC

no.

It is a myth. Well designed resistance training program during the growing years will have a favorable influence for bone growth.

Girls - possibly at 12 but boys later

Probably not. I believe it depends on what area the child is working in and his application of locomotor abilities. Of course, supervisors are needed to guide the athlete in correct techniques

Is it resistance training or Training inappropriate to age what stund a growth?

It can be unsafe without proper and/or supervised techniques. So, there should be a focus on building proper form before adding weight or resistance.

absolutely not.

2025-10-06 05:56:26 UTC

Not really .. progressive but dosed rightly based in age and body structure

Girls can get stronger with well balanced resistance training

With proper supervision and instruction, younger kids can do strength training.
