None

Weight lifting will not stunt your growth (assuming you use proper form) and no supplements are needed; just eat well, rest enough and follow a proven lifting program.

Other than your basic multivitamin.

no not at all, especially at your age, and the fact that you do not even lift.

let me try to help


lifting weights does not stunt growth if you are working with people know what they are doing. That said let me say that instead of weight lifting why dont you start with one of the most challenging exercises of all time - the push up! Push ups will make you stronger and work a LOT of muscle.

Try doing 10 good push ups per day. when you can do 20 push ups in a row, aim for 2 sets of 20 pushups per day. when you can do that, aim for 3 sets of 20 push ups. When that gets easy, do them slower!

Push ups may not seem as "sexy" as weight lifting, you are lifting your body weight and push ups will make you stronger. Do that and eat a little protein and carbs (turkey sandwich) after working out and you should be ok.


While you didnt ask about supplements let me just toss in that you dont need any - other than maybe a multi vitamin.

The fact is that no supplement will give you what you already have - being only 15 years old! Most people will kill to have what you have (youth!). your body is getting stronger naturally ever day. no supplement - not even creatine - will do for you what is happening naturally.

I hope this helps you!

Age in post says he is 15, but stats column states 42....

At 15, if you are 15 you should be focused more on the form and diet of your training. Supplements should come later to help get you things you lack in our diet,.

At 15 you will be able to make more gains with proper eating than people my age could with supplements and proper everything
