Back when I was a teenage I always thought this was true, because there are many of my friend who do body building has short height. I believe many of you reading this also believe this…

But the truth according to recent research (link below), body building doesn’t stop growth there are only three thing that can stop growth which is steroids, some supplement, and obviously poor nutrition. Before you start blaming body building as the cause of  short height, you should pay more attention to poor nutrition because the chances are it is the cause of poor growth.

Take a look at Shaquille O’Neal or Davin Robinson where they start body building in early age but they doesn’t have any problem with height. So bodybuilding stop growth? This is just a myth…
