[quote=Anonymous]I have a 15 year old boy who swims, but not intense team swim. He does summer swim team, high school swim in the winter, and 1-2 practices (not intense) much of the year as his only exercise. He’s not super fast but he enjoys it, which is great, we are glad he has this! He has always had low muscle tone (which is likely why he hasn’t excelled in or enjoyed most other sports) and I am hoping he learns how to do some weight lifting to help him build muscle at a time where he can develop it easily. He does not want to do weight lifting in school despite my suggestions for him to choose that one (and now he already completed his PE requirement). Any suggestions as to how to encourage this and for him to learn it safely? We are in MoCo if anyone has suggestions of specific gyms or personal trainers who work with teens. Thank you! [/quote]
