    Weight lifting will NOT stunt your growth. Just lift with good form and eat.

    heavy squats can compress your spine, but that doesn't "stunt" your growth.

    do some hanging to decompress it, also a good grip workout.

    Lifting weights does not stunt growth. Perhaps if someone began hitting your knees with a sledge hammer for 2 hours a day, THEN your height may be stunted. I would be more worried about stunting growth by not eating enough rather than lifting weights.

    Probably damaging your growth plates can stunt your growth. So if you hurt yourself you may damage your growth plates and stunt your growth...so either do squats in good form or you may damage your growth plates.

    looll your 21... it will not stunt your growth.
    if you still believe it does, then quit any sport with running, because running has shown to put 6-8x the pressure your bodyweight on your back.

    he was prob older. some old people are stuck on there theorys that theyve heard when they were working out when they were a kid. my friends dad still goes to the gym dirrectly after he wakes up because hey use to say that you shouldnt eat before you workout cause your body cant digest while your working out and it will all turn to fat.

    Stunt growth is a result of vigorius exercise on during your body development ages. It really doesn`t matter if it legs or any other specific body part.You can force stunt your growth by working out with heavy weights before you during your growth ages. Avoid heavy workloads until you are an adult.

    This post is from 2011, what the ****

    Also I'd advice you to stop giving advices because you don't know ****. Saying that it will stunt your growth is just a misconception, there is no study that proves what you are saying, and it's kinda weird since I am currently 6'0 and I have been training in and out since I was 14 and I'm 16 in a few days. I am growing at a rapid phase per year now, so no, it won't stunt your growth.
