Best Answer

A good recommendation is to play regular sports to develop all-around fitness and coordination. Wait until age sixteen (or fifteen at least) before lifting weights. Because of the skeletal immaturity of a 14-year-old, it is not advisable that they train with weights until a little older.

Keep lifting. Lift consistently, and do not skip. Try to eat lean meats after lifting, and remember: it isn't how much you can lift that ultimately determines strength, you will gain strength even if you lift smaller weights very frequently.
