Does Working Out Stunt Growth in Teenagers? (Growth Hormone)

Answering some questions on a quick walk - Does lifting weights stunt growth In teenagers?

The answer is basically "it depends" - let's take a look at the basic principles of testosterone enhancement and hormonal health.

First off, any training that chronically elevates cortisol levels will definitely stunt growth as it will hurt growth hormone and testosterone output through puberty, a very important time.

Weight training is great, but you definitely need to still stick to these principles, especially since most teenagers are involved in some kind of other sport outside of the weight training, like wrestling, football, baseball etc. so they may end up being involved in a massive amount of activity, and the reality is that most teenagers do not pay much attention to their nutrition so they can become under nourished, dehydrated, etc all of which can hurt your growth potential.

I say - if you are going to train, in any sport, weights, etc, please pay a lot of attention to your health and getting the proper micronutrients and macronutrients in your diet. Also, you need to sleep a lot more than an adult, especially if you're very active so aim to always get more than 8 hours per night.
