[QUOTE="Beardy, post: 132902"] Familiarize yourself with the articles on [url="http://www.bodybuilding.com"]http://www.bodybuilding.com[/url] and [url="http://www.t-nation.com"]http://www.t-nation.com[/url] I know they focus on bodybuilding but it gives you a great insight into weight lifting. And you don't have to be 15 to start weight lifting, there's only a small chance of stunting your growth if you do your 1 rep max on things like squats which puts stress on the back. Still, you won't be able to lift heavy enough stuff to do this! I recommend a program such as Rippetoes, search it on bb.com. It focuses around compound lifts; like the squat, deadlift, barbell row, bench press, military press etc. Don't fall into the trap of doing loads of isolation exercises such as bicep curls! [/QUOTE]
