Is it safe to start weight lifting at 15?

Okay I'm 15, male and 5'9. So I was just wondering is it recommended for me to start weight lifting? Should I do heavy lifting like that on Bowflex machines or just regular lifting dumbells?

1. Yes it is a great time to start weight lifting. I should know im a gym teacher.

2. Not if your still growing. Lifting weights causes you to mess your growth up. Its highly recommended to lift weights after the age of 18.

3. lol i'd knock u out, u little guy that doesnt even know how 2 lift
