I’m 16 and I just started lifting weights about two months ago. I’m slowing gaining some mass all around my body except my back. What exercises can I do with dumbbells that’ll help me gain some muscle mass on my back?
I have heard that lifting weights stops height growth if you are at a growing age. Does sitting down when you are lifting dumbbells etc. help stop this effect?
Also does using resistance bands instead of weights help reduce this effect?

Im 17 and i weight 140 pounds. I’ve been lifting weights for about a year now, but now i want to improve the size and strength of my arms. What is a good exercise with dumbbells and how long would it take to see new results.
Hello,
The first day i started lifting weights, i didn’t warm up or anything, i just went straight to the dumbbells and started lifting weights. I got sore muscles and i still have the soreness its been about 3 now, but i realized the my left arm is a little swollen.
The part above my elbow, like the part where i fold my arm.
Is this something i should be concerned about?
I did some research and i think the swollen part is on the side muscle of my elbow, left hand.
My brother has a scoliosis and we want to go to the gym together but I’m not sure if he can do it because his scoliosis might get worse if we will workout everyday. So, does lifting weights affect the scoliosis development or not?
Ok so i am 6 ft tall and 210lbs and 20 years old. I started lifting weights a couple months ago. I own a bench press and dumb bells. When i work out i do curls with the 40lb dumbbells and i do them slowly and i dont throw my body weight, i can do 24(12 each arm) without stopping, when i do my sets i usually just do the most i can with every set. As for bench pressing, i have olympic 45 plates that i use on a olympic bar. It is heavy and i can do 10 without stopping. I also put a pair of 35plates and 25 plates(165lbs) and i can do that about 4 time each. I work out with them for about 30 min to an hour but the next day im not THAT sore. Would it be ok to workout everyday if im not really sore, and am i even getting stronger if i dont get sore? Would it be better to press the 135lbs in sets of 10 or the 165lbs in sets of 4? Thanks in advance for any help.
Ok But my main goal is to build strength as well as muscle mass. I want to be strong and look good. So my real question is are my muscles even getting bigger if they dont get sore? Should i work out harder?
