I have a cousin whose 15 and im wondering whether thats too young to start bodybuilding? I look at all the pros and almost all of them are under 6' tall, im wondering if bodybuilding and weight lifting could damage his growth plates or anything else. What do you recommend he does to get started?

omg zir red is gonna thrash this.
no.
the reason pro bodybuilders tend to be short is due to the genetics it requires to reach that level, and you have to have gorgeous muscle bellies that are full and you gotta be thick as hell.
that is extremely hard to pull off the taller one gets, due to longer muscle bellies.
unless your Big Shawn Allen
winner of Junior Nationals the other week.

but no the only way it affects your growth is that you might build some damn muscles.

well zir red will give u a lot of clarification on this matter, but until then, i will throw my 2 cents in.
the big misconception about weight training and its affect on growth came from the prevalence and lack of mainstream knowledge about steroids way back when, when otc **** was basically gear, and kids didn't know what they were getting.
see gear was more easily available before the big crackdowns on it, and gear at a young age can cause growth plates to fuse, amongst many other horrible sides.

people associated this with training, when it was a direct affect of adolescent steroid MISuse and ABuse

yes it's true, taller guy's hav a really hard time getting to be olympica-big. It's because they have such long muscles and greater ROM's, keeping them from lifting very heavy weight

first off how old are you and secondly you should post this in the steroid section to get better responses.

im 18
i started off at 130lbsish got up to 196
dieted down to 165
competed
took a week off
its about 3 weeks
and im at 181 in the morning naked
bout 185 in the afternoon

what you need is a good diet and training split.
