Is it okay to let my 14 yo son go to the gym and do weights? He is skinny fat, so the only solution that i could think of is building muscles.

Get him to do Calisthenics and sprints
although apparently lifting doesn't stunt growth, I've been lifting since I was 14 and am 6'1
>>
fuck yeah
all that bullshit that lifting will stun growth is a meme
Start it in middle of puberty while tesetosterone levels are highest. with proper eating and corective lifting he will gain lots of size naturally until his 20s
>>
14 is the best age to start getting hyuje

gotta ride that pubertal hormone surge
>>
>>38594181
yes, anyone who says that you shouldnt is an idiot
>>
Aslong as he doesnt hurt his lower back squatting or deadlifting he'l be fucking fine.

We all know who "your son" is anon

Thanks for feedback. I checked the towns gym site and it said that you have to be at least 16 years old. What do? Buy weights and shit or?

Get his biological parent (mother) to write a letter to the gym seeking permission

You really think a 14 yo is wasting his time here?
>>38594871
Nigger, fathers are parents too
>>
Sure but no squats and no deads
>>
>>38594181
Make sure he is using proper form and he's set.
>>
>>38595188
i dunno man, if i started wasting my god damn life at /b/ and shit when i was 12, anything can happen
>>
>>38594181

Sprints + Jogging, also diet. I wouldn't suggest lifting weights until about 17. Seriously, he'll have tremendous gains if he builds up his stamina with sprinting before starting lifting.
>>
>>38594181
Make sure he's learned up on how to move heavy objects gooder than the average gymnasium patron.
>>
Started lifting at 13 (was like 5'7) now im 6'3 at 19
>>
>>38596001
If I remember correctly, there are videos of Klokov doing Oly shit at 13.
>>
>>38594181
yeah just make sure he takes breaks, doesnt try the deadlifts, drinks water
>>
Don't let him
I made a mistake by training with 14/15 and i ended up as a manlet
Meanwhile all my cousins are all over 6'3 big
