[quote=Anonymous]As a youth sports coach (paid) and former collegiate athlete in a heavy lifting sport - I don't know what your goals are for the child, but I would consult the trainers there regarding activities for a 12 year old. I would not do weight training with a child that age - no weights, no machines. I would stick to calisthenics, plyometrics, ab/core work and other body weight exercises. Pull-ups, push-ups, dips, body weight rows, burpees, body weight squats, step-ups, lunges, hyperextensions, planks Box jumps, squat jumps, tuck jumps, split jumps, Plyo-push-ups You can also get some exercises from yoga or lighter cross fit routines (inch worm to grass hopper)[/quote]
