Reply With QuoteNo!...weight training will not damage your epiphyseal plates ( growth plates).
However Steroid use can cause them to close up prematurely...so don't use them until at least 21......better yet don't use them ever.
Go see a sports Doctor if you have any questions about your body that pertain to training and/or steroid use.

Does bodybuilding damage your growth plates?
Hey,
I was wondering if bodybuilding around 3 days a week will damage my growth plates to the extent of preventing me form reaching my full height. If they r damaged will they heal in time?
Also is there someone i can see, that is able to examine my growth plates to tell me if they are damaged already?
Thanx

Just ask buildingup. He knows all the answers
. The whole 'bodybuilding stunts your growth' myth is worthless. Keep a-lifting my friend.
