Best age to begin working out
- Thread starter i2ancid2
- Start date
I started at 14. I wish I wouldve started earlier though! Maybe I wouldve gotten a jump on progress. haha Not sure its healthy, but my mind isnt focused on health! I never noticed anything strange from training at 14, and was probabally the same size at 12-13, so dont think it wouldve been too harmful.

Bro that is why your probably only 5'8!! J/K you know I'm fuckin around wit you
I think you can start at a pretty young age, as long as you do it right. It probably isnt smart for a pre-teen to start dedicating his life around weight training, but man has worked out in some sense since the begining of time, and back in the day kids as young as they could walk would go work on the farm/ranch and that is some serious liftin! so I think the bigger question is, what is the right age to start using sups?? and I think that is something you have to take serious!!! I have heard it is pretty solid here that you should wait till your 25 till you start AAS, around 18-21 before you should start pro-hormones, and the really simple things, like multi vits, amino acids, creatine, and other stuff like that, you would probably just gauge it down a little, maybe. But you should also work out for awhile 6-12 months totally natural, learn your body, and what works for it, and go from there...
good luck
Peace

Start young.
Numerous studies from Europe show that weightlifing (read that as: olympic lifts) are beneficial and have a more practical carry over to sports and health.
That being said - I have witnessed one ex-Olympian teaching his daughters how to do cleans. And I believe the girls were 8 & 12. Weights the older daughter was using was around 80# (practically her bodyweight).

1) You can start cardio at a pretty young age - and that's a good thing to do.
2) I wouldn't start a girl lifting too early or too heavy. In all honesty, she's not old enough to make the decision that she doesn't want to look like a woman and you shouldn't make it for her. Just stick to body weight exercises, cardio, and some lighter weights.
3) WB - You'd be a handsome man if your face didn't look like the interior wall of chop shop. You going to be cutting anytime soon?

....Ahhhh What couldve been! Yes Im planning on cutting very soon. I think I might do that tonight as well. 
If leaning out is what you mean, then that could be a while!! haha I may get leaner from changes in diet though, since my diet can change alot due to budget and other conditions. I plan to bulk for a while longer though. Still have alot of goals that are getting close. 19" arms and 405 on the bench to name a few. I dont think itll be a problem to cut down once I have some decent size. 20" arms should be decent. ThanX again brother!!

Id say weights at the start of highschool, so around 15-16. I would recommend sports as soon as they are old enough to play. Definentlly will give them an advantage over the people who say start at 10 years old. I started playing organized teeball when i was like 4-5, and football at age 12. It definently gave me an advantage over others having started playing at such a young age. Also will help develope life long friendships. I still have really good friends that i started playing ball with when i was like 10 years old.

I started around junior high....sooo around 12-13. I'm 6'3 so I don't think it stunted my growth any 
but who knows maybe I was supposed to be 6'5
I also didn't really have a clue what I was doing (ie no squats or deads)
