Weight lifting for kids

Weight lifting for kids

Weight training for kids, when approached correctly, can offer numerous benefits. It doesn’t and never has stunned growth. This myth has been scrubbed time and time again by studies. 

it promotes muscle mass, bone mass and it’s fun!! 

It's essential to prioritize safety and proper technique over heavy lifting. Starting with light weights and focusing on controlled movements helps in developing a strong foundation.

It's crucial that exercises are age-appropriate and supervised by a qualified professional who understands the unique needs of growing bodies.

Strength training at a young age can not only enhance muscular strength and endurance but also improve sports performance, boost confidence, and instill lifelong healthy habits.

However, it's important to remember that the primary goal is to promote fitness and fun, not to push children into intense or competitive weightlifting regimes (straight away 😀💪)
