Does weightlifting stunt height growth?

[Johnnyboi88]

Nigger ur 6 2 y do u even care, u wanna go to the nba?

No just make sure to eat enough protein and don't go on a crazy cut.

 

[Stare]

No. Some retarded assumed that because he thought the muscle would get bigger and not give space for the bones to grow, it is wrong

I have more potential as my dad is around 6'5" so why waste it.?

Lifting will give you a decent T boost for around 30m-1h so you could assume that in that time it could be aromatized into E, but the studies I read have not seen any change in E levels (which would fuse your bones)

It could compress your spine and make you shorter by a few mm for like a day, but just like sitting upside down doesn't make you taller, this will not affect your height

I think there was a study about overhead exercises slightly stunting growth, but it is probs bs

 

[psycophsez]

I would stay away from overhead exercises. There's no real science behind lifting stunting growth though, so go ahead and lift. You're 6'2 anyway, you should be slaying instead of asking questions in forums like these...

Ego lifting on squats and deadlifts has quite a bit of evidence to support the idea it can stunt growth, so as long as you aren’t a clown in the gym go nuts buddy boyo

Only if you injure yourself by doing incorrect form

It doesn't stunt height growth, but can compress your spine = appearing shorter. So maybe it can. Just be sure to get a min of 8+ hours of sleep if you're lifting, becouse in sleep your spine decompresses.
