start young and stick with it...results will take along time so dont' get discoraged....work out your shoulders and back not jsut arms....I wish I coudl explain a whoel bunch of work outs but I really dont' know how to communicate it...I'm a real skiny guy and genetically have to work super hard to get slow *** results but I have stuck with it and have got stronger....stick with it adn start young...do searhs on the net for work outs....if you start young by the time your 18-20 you will be ahead of the game...I am behind in the game...I lsot all my muscle from being a complete lazy *** now I have to get it back slowly but surley...

depending on your genetics..you wont see much till 16+(20+ for nutso stuff).
doesnt mean you cant start. just dont lift to crazy.
just enjoy yourself and be safe!
just remember..big results wont come till your olders

do more situps then that though.
doing more core body work would be good for you(sit ups, push ups..tuck jumps...back arches)
abs need to be worked out quite a bit to get them to be great..
but at 14..dont go to wild

I'd say wait a bit man but stay active.
I used to be active as a kid then got lazy and gained weight now I joined a gym (I'm 19). Trying to use it all and gain some muscle. I'm no longer as lazy and go to the gym 5 days a week.

Stay active, it's the best thing for someone your age. When your around 17, 18 start working out and lifting weights. Right now your still growing.

Use your own body as resistance for now. The male body technically does not stop growing/developing fully until the early 20's. If you use weight as resistance now, you risk run the risk of damaging your growth plates. This in turn will affect how you grow and develop, and may also lead to growth disorders.

Just my 2 cents. BTW...Just so you know I'm not talking out my ***, I am an elite level alpine ski coach who deals with the training and development of athletes around your age. My opinion, use an exercise ball and your own body weight for resistance. Hope this helps.

i'm 21 and still living off my genetics ability to burn fat without physical work

dingus8

what....if 10 pounds is heavy for you then that is ok...as you get stronger then increase weight....it shoudl get hard to lift at 10 reps if your using the right weight....jsut keep what your doing and increase as you go....do soem lunges to get yoru legs cause the m,roe you build your legs the more you can built your upper body (genetic fact)...my body burns so much if I dont' ptu it to use my body will literally eat itself up till I'm a bone rack

BladeX

yea i dont want to increase and increase cuz then it will cause me to not grow properly



but do u think 10 pound is okay for me rite now i wont increase for a while

mr_x_81

ok first off to damage a growth plate takes ALOT of stress over a long period of time or breaking the bone at the growth plate which isn't gonna happen lifting the weigths that you will be able to lift. As for stunting your growth you would have to be trainning for hours a day to do that and if you did get into weight lifting that much and u noticed that you weren't growing to your pontential height(comparing to direct family members) then you would only have to stop weight lifting to allow your body to grow. but as i mentioned all of these negative effects of weight lifting on young people only happen in extreme cases. so go lift weights and gain some size and strength, it will make you feel good about yourself. oh and don't bother taking any supplements cause they porbably won't do anything for you and steriods = very bad and expensive stay away from them

BladeX

yea, im not taking ensure plus or those stuff that boost u vitamin or whatever it gives


b ut steriods hmm...doesnt seem bad


haha j/k

Whatever you decide to do, don't forget to work your legs, so many kids start working out and never work thier legs, then as they get older they have enormous upper bodies and little chicken legs...it's hilarious...so don't be that guy...

BladeX

i still got gym and stuff i go running and biking a bit is that good or what should i do,

so pushup situp weights what else should i do ? thx
