Thank you for that explanation. I’m a father of 8 athletes. I’ve always been that dad under the impression of early lifting and the potential growth implications. We have changed that with my younger kids and the results have been amazing.

Lot's of farm boys, over the year, who have been lifting feed sacks, carrying 5 gallon buckets of grain/milk, and throwing bales of hay should be proof that moving weight doesn't stunt growth.....

@vensonj 2 года назад

That’s not the same as weight lifting though….that’s actual movement…it’s all most like CrossFit training…I know I’m a farm boy my father never allowed me to lift weights I out grew everyone…6’4 265

@davidhuffman145 2 года назад

@@vensonj it is moving weight. The strongest kids around, pre-weight-training programs in school, were farm kids. Carrying 50 lb sacks of feed, and throwing even heavier balls of hay is strength training. In fact, it is functional strength training. You're loopy if you don't see the similarities.

You were studying the impact on weight training and growth plate fractures, but you didn't look into how weight training impacts have on the endocrine system, which controls growth to begin with. How does it impact GH, IGF, T, E, cortisol, etc.

@maxogreenz Год назад

I remember I started lifting when I was going into 8th grade. I was about 5’4 at the time. At 23, I stand around 5’9 (just over 5’9 in the morning). My dad is 6’2 and my mom is 5’4.5-5’5, my sister stands around 5’7”. What’s weird is I have grown since I was 18 by about 1.5”. I think my height has been mostly genetics, due to my grandpa on my mom’s side being about 5’7 (Eastern European). I think I was going to be in the 5’9 range anyway due to that being the average between my parents. It is what it is. Btw I wear a size 11 shoe and have a wingspan of 72 inches.

@SirCharles913 Год назад

It's not weightlifting itself it's how heavy and intense you go. The more heavy and intense you go it causes the body to trigger an early production of testosterone leading to premature fusion of the growth plates and leading to an early growth spurt. In order for the body to keep up with the intensity it needs androgens. Meaning you do lose inches as a result.

@jbf1734 Год назад

I've been wondering this for a while do you think it will stunt mine? I'm 15 and 5,8 I am a later bloomer so I think I can grow to 5,11 6 foot but I want to keep working out is it going to affect me?

@SirCharles913 Год назад

@@jbf1734First of all I would go for an x-ray to see if your growth plates are still open if you can. It just depends on how long you've been training for and how heavy - intensive your doing your training and your genetics and your hormonal structure will be a factor. Watch your diet as well and make sure you eat well and don't neglect your meals. Feed your body with good nutrition.

@yahnah9116 4 месяца назад

Litteraly false. Estrogen closes the growth plates, not testosterone. Infact testosterone is neccesary for development of bones and also height, more of it doesnt make you shorter, it makes you taller. You are not "losing inches" by weight training. Please stop spreading false information and scaring teens into not weightlifting

"Stunts your growth, shrinks your p*nis, all your muscle turns to fat if you stop training even for a brief period, if you're not careful you'll accidentally get far to big, men will want to fight you if you get muscular" are just some of the utter B.S things people who couldn't be arsed to train & had no idea of what they were talking about used to spout at me when I started lifting at the age of 13, thirty odd years ago.

@aynrandfan7454 2 года назад

Maybe it did for me im only 5’10 my dad is 6’2 and mom is 5’9 and cousins are 6’3 and 6’6 …but again I did a drastic diet in grade 9 to lose 30 lbs of fat in 3 months as well as running for one hour and lifting 6 days a week (without much proper training and resting) … I think nutrition and rest as well as genetics and injury prevention are more important to height than early weight lifting overall

@quantashonjamaldigglerbury4934 Год назад

Sometimes genetic mutations and other factors in the womb can make a baby average height or even shorter height even if the parents/family are tall And vice versa Plus 5'10 isnt even that bad infact thats pretty tall for the rest of the world. Even in the US the average height is 5'9.5 so your slightly above average even in the west Its more likely you had shittier nutrition and shittier sleep/sleep quality and also the drastic diet and these all contributed to you being slightly shorter or you just got unlucky and got the wrong genes. You should get leg lengthening surgery,arm lengthening surgery and clavicle widening surgery then use an inversion table to decompress the spine you could add up to 6-10 inches doing this. The arm lengthening and clavicle widening is to balance out the proportions so you dont look goofy

@ozancanca9740 2 года назад

Strength training might be safe, promote injury prevention etc. but still the increased load on the bone that creates the benefits on the first place, may work against the growth plates after a certain point of volume and intensity.

Does not lifting help release growth hormones?

@denguefevah2727 Год назад

Stretching release more growth hormone for bones to grow more room. Carrying weights on the other hand injures your muscle so their growth hormones just means recovering and build new muscle tissue instead of growing bones longer.
