In this video, we're going to discuss how weightlifting can stunt your growth. We'll discuss the reason why weightlifting can cause growth to be stunted, as well as some tips on how to prevent growth to be stunted.
If you're a beginner weightlifter or an intermediate weightlifter, be sure to watch this video to learn how to prevent growth to be stunted from weightlifting. Weightlifting is one of the most effective exercises for building muscle and losing fat, so make sure you don't stunt your growth by not doing depth jumps.

The claim made in the video that high-intensity plyometrics can close the epiphyseal plates and stunt growth in young teenagers is not supported by scientific evidence. The epiphyseal plates, also known as growth plates, are areas of cartilage at the ends of long bones that are responsible for bone growth and development. There is a common myth that high-impact activities like plyometrics can damage these growth plates and potentially stunt growth in teenagers. However, several studies have found no correlation between plyometric training and decreased height or growth plate damage. In fact, properly designed and supervised plyometric training can improve athletic performance and reduce the risk of injury in young athletes.
