I weigh 182 pounds im 5-10 5-11 something like that I bench 180 pounds and everyone keeps on telling me that I'm gonna stop growing and that im gonna be 5-10 forever. Why do they do this? I dont even bench that much btw 180 is not my max I do not believe that doing 1 rep helps all it is is bragging. I do 180 about 20 times so what is this jellousy?

If your still a teen or early 20's and your pushing more then your body weight you will stop growing but your at your body weight so there is no problem present

You won't stop growing if you can do 180lbs 20 times! Now, of you were to do your max (1-3 reps) all the time, that would be a different matter. There are no studies to prove that weightlifting stunts your growth. If you are done puberty though you might not grow any taller but you might have a little gowth left in you.

highly unlikely weight lifting will inhibit growth.
just don't get crazy with it.
i don't think jealousy is an issue, people just like to be know-it-all's.
