I'm 14, 5', about 80 lbs. I'm on the wrestling team, and each practice, for about 40 minutes, we lift weights. I was wondering if lifting weights would stunt my growth. I have heard about lifting doing that, is that true? I don't think I have had my growth spurt yet. Is there a way I can lift safely? Also, some of the wrestler drink protein shakes to help repair their muscles after a workout. Is that safe for someone in my position. I think the one he uses is "Amplify" by NDS. Here is a site with the nutritional value: http://www.ndsnutrition.com/comersus/store/comersus_viewNutrData.asp?pIdProduct=10 The protein powder also has 18 different amino acids, what are those?
I was also wondering if there is anything i can do to gain weight, the safe/healthy way. I am about 10 lbs under weight for wrestling. My local GNC store said that I could use a "Complete Mass Building Forumula" to gain healthy weight. It has about 228 calories, 57g of Carbohydrates, and 3g of sugars. Is this a good way to gain weight?
Any advice would greatly be appreciated.
THANKS
