[quote=Anonymous] Listen to the PPs saying to wait. Friend's son, around the age of your son, is a good athlete and wanted to build up strength but his doctor said absolutely no weights until son was older because weights can stress bones if done too young, plus, doctor said kids often don't really listen to directions and don't use weights correctly if they start too young or do it all on their own using a parent's free weights at home. That can result in pulled muscles, stressed joints, etc. Weights can wait until your son is older, has grown more, and is able to learn how to do them correctly at a gym with a trainer for a few sessions.
