Does Lifting Weights Stunt Growth? What The Science Says

If you're a parent of a child under age 18, you might be wondering if the strength training workouts your child is doing at the gym or as part of a sports team is stunting their growth. While this concern seems legitimate, the good news is, your child does not have to quit lifting weights.
