If you are 14, your body is still trying to grow. Follow your coaches work out routine. You shouldn't see much muscle growth besides becoming more toned.
After puberty is done though, things get big
My weight thru high school,
9th grade, 13/14 y/old 95 pounds
10th grade, 14/15 y/old 105 pounds.
11th grade, 15/16 y/old 175 pounds.
12th grade, 160 pounds.
I blew up during my 11th year, (not all of it was muscle
) after that though, I could see results in everything I did. I had access to weights my 9/10 year, I didn't grow at all. After my body grew up, I could actually put on muscle mass.
Currently sophomore in college, 165 pounds all (almost all) muscle. I still have my soccer/wrestling metabolism. Once you start lifting, you will never be big enough
if you look on youtube there are many people who workout when there young are still really tall etc. it is not scientifically proven that lifting stunts your growth, i lifted before not serious and dont really build muscle fast but im hoping this year is better

As long as you lift with the correct form, lifting will not stunt your growth. It is common though because most kids do not know the proper form on exercises such as squatting and deadlifting which if done incorrectly, can stunt growth but can also ruin your back.

Lifting won't stunt your growth, but until your body is ready for it, you will not see much growth either. Just unnecessary strain.
Some people never put on weight from lifting, it's just their body type.

you need to do body workout not just shoulder bizeps trizeps breast
and your statement is false!! Your muscles autommatically grow after use them idk how to explain it in english though
But around 15-16 its the best age as your body is still young and fast

Yes they do because the act of working out is literally tearing your muscles then they regrow with more muscle added.

I do professional powerlifting and go to competitions and meets. I look for size and power. I don't know if that's what you're really looking for.

No, you are just hurting yourself. Your muscles need time to recover. Never work out the same muscle two days in a row.
