[quote=Anonymous]As a former body builder and current powerlifter, I'd be more concerned with peer pressure to go to heavy, poor form, and most importantly: strength programs written by coaches that don't know anything about strength training. I'm ALL for kids getting in the gym and getting stronger. But be sure someone is there is to advise and that the adult in charge actually knows something about form, progressive overload, and appropriate rep range by age. At 15, your DS can start to go heavier. Ages 12-14, the kids should REALLY focus on proper form with rep range in the 8-12 range. Even for the "big" motions like squatting [/quote]
