Does anyone else find this disturbing, they say that you should not lift weights until you are 12 due to bone growth and hardening. I just don't get this.

no.....it's not like he's power lifting....he just looks to be a rare breed....instead of disturbing, my one word to describe this would be...awesome

 

[msudeltadawg1971]

but he is lifting weights, coaches and dr's will tell you not to let your kids lift weights until 12, or at least that's what johnny cooks told me and he told me he had slept at a holiday inn express the night before.haha

but he's not going overkill. I remember a kid a few years back that was literally powerlifting and looked like a freak. This kid is doing mostly bodyweight lifting which is encouraged anyway. He's just a freak.

If by "this" you mean the fact that you watch videos of shirtless children in your spare time, then, yes.
