hey there...

Absolutely not - this is a total myth. Your growth patterns are not affected by lifting correctly...but by injury. The best bet is to lift lighter weights as your growing, gradually working up to heavier weights as to stay safe and avoid injury. Deadlifts, squats, clean and jerks, etc - will not stun your growth in any way! Make sure to use proper form, and go lighter with more reps until you are adept at the exercise to avoid injury. Also make sure to stretch and eat properly!

thanks

hey there..

well yes, but the only way to crush growth plates (and/or vertabrae and the spinal column) and prevent further growth is from injury. Simply lifting will not cause trauma to the growth plates and prevent them from growing. If your muscles can handle a specific weight on a specific exercise...there will be no problem. The only time theres a severe problem is when you do an exercise incorrectly and/or lift too much and shift the strain from your muscles to your bones. The best option as I stated before was to lift lighter and work into heavier weights...taking care to stop the MOMENT you feel the slightest tingle of pain. Always remember, stretching before and after workouts will help...and eating healthy...as well as supplementation will actually HELP you to grow =)

I see.

Well you are only 14 years old, I'm sure you will grow more...you have another 10 years of growing left. I'm 21 and 5'7 - no more growing for me in height...just muscle size haha.

I just want to jump in here... stretching is one of the key components in not only health/functionality but getting bigger. If you are a bodybuilder you should definetly look into intense stretching or "DC stretching" for those of you DCers out there.
