Does lifting weight affect height while standing?

I’m 14. I’m a small frame male and my ? is that, does lifting dumbbells while standing straight affect height growth? I lift 20 pound dumbbells while standing, so will that put pressure on my legs and cause me to grow little?

Answer #1

No not at all trust me I’ve done research, make sure you eat a lot!

Answer #2

no it will not. Lifting while standing will increase muscle mass, but not affect your bone growth. But to ensure good strong bones, make sure to get plenty of calcium in your diet.
