[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]At what age can you begin [/quote] Any age with proper technique and supervision. Keep in mind strength training doesn't just mean lifting weights. Youth athletes, like gymnasts, are doing body weight strength training in early elementary. The boys won't get a lot of hypertrophy (which is what a lot of them are looking for) until puberty and they have more testosterone. But weight lifting for strength and sports performance is absolutely appropriate for middle school and up. [/quote]
