no im 14 and i love to work out!.!.
cause i play basically every sport to,

and now that its summer i runner 4 miles every day!.
and its only bad if you dont drink enough water,
and if you dont get enough sleep!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I think it's fine, but since you're a girl and you're still just 13, it's important to be really careful with the weights!. Some weight exercizes are not good for women b/c how the female body is different from the male's!. So see if you can get an employee or trainer to make sure you're using all the machines properly and not doing anything potentially harmful!.

But starting such a healthy routine at a young age sounds like a great idea! I don't see any problem with it!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

well i agree, it does depend on what excercises you do!. working out is relaxing!. theres nothing wrong with going to the gym regularly, its actually healthy for you!. but for a 13 year old, keep the weightlifting at a minimum and try focusing on individual sports, or running!. lifting too much weights can stint your growth, so dont lift too much, unless you want to be a meathead!. :PWww@Answer-Health@Com

depends what you do there!. run on the tredmill or lift weights, heavy or light!. more info to answer please!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
