Is it ok for a teen to do workouts that involve strength training?

Question

Will strength training stunt a teens growth or do damage to his body. I'm not talking about extreme lifting or anything like that. Would basic strength training exercises to build body mass be ok for a teen.

Answer 1

Yes, you are more likely to be injured because your bones are not fully developed.  Also, it could slow down any height growth you may have.

Answer 2

No, it will not stunt ure growth, but  wait until 14 to make sure, i am 14  now and Fing ripped.
