Yes it is true that Weightlifting can stunt someone's growth but more than that affects his thinking. I mean to say that if someone is having in mind that it will affect his growth then it will surely and if he thinks it doesn't then in that case if still it's have an effect it will not have an impact.

My dad used to be a weight lifter but he didn't start until he had stopped growing at around 18. It doesn't stunt someones growth but i think i can if you are very young ( under 10). It is better to start when you are slightly older aswell as your testostorone levels are higher giving you a better muscular build. But do not whatever you do extperiment with steroids because you will damage your body.

Yeah its a fact, many people believe that its just a myth but believe me its reality. But that only happens if you start too early, ie when your bones are in growing period.
I know a lot of people, even my friends they were of the same height as mine but when they started weight lifting their growth stopped and now they are not tall enough.

If you lift and hold 200kgs over your head too long, it'll make you shorter and cause you to walk funny(er).
