I turn 16 in a month and i am only 5'5 112 pounds which is not tall and i wanna get taller so will weightlifting stop me from getting taller?|||OLD WIVES TALE!
NO--they used to say that it might for people under 14 but there is ZERO evidence for that claim. If anything, it might make you taller because it increases your secretion of HGH.
I started lifting at 14 and I am 6'3"
Lou Ferrigno, from "The Incredible Hulk" and "Pumping Iron" started lifting when he was 14 and he's 6'5" and the tallest person in his family.|||NO. The only way that can happen is if you injure a growth plate. If you do that you're sorta screwed anyway. But its hard to do. So as long as you don't try to murder yourself... by all means lift to your hearts desire|||Just the opposite. Research has shown that exercise can slightly enhance your growth.
