I have had many emails and letters from concerned parents over my son Darian's powerlifting/strongman training. Many have made the comment that this will stunt his growth as a youth. I'm not really sure where this myth originated from but I am here to put to an end.
There are no published medical or university studies to prove this myth to be true. In fact, I have one article which is published by The National Strength and Conditioning Association "Youth resistance Training" which dispels this myth. This article is published from medical journals, medical publications and university studies. This is only one of many research articles out there that dispel this on going myth.
