Mind you, it would be interesting to email him telling him how sick he makes you, and see what reply you get. Automated Response:- "Thank you for your interest in little hercules...."
Mag: Don't remember much at all of last night do you?
Me: put simply.... No
Mag: From what I put together of your late night drunken ramblings? Vodka, 3 girls, and then we played tic-tac-toe and slapped each other around.

I actually saw a special on him several months ago. Apparantly both his mother and his father are diet & excercize freaks and they got him started at an early age. I believe his father was abusive and his mother finally divorced him. At that time he took a break from his diet and excersize for a few months, but now he's back into it again. He's supposed to star in some little tarzan movie or something like that coming up.
Anywhere you can find a raving lunatic rambling on about his past and how he received the enlightenment from the toads who hail from the heavens, I'll be there.
And no, I'm not on drugs.

@Rebel- Agreed, I remember reading something about this.
As per the healthiness of this, I work as a medic, so until someone with an MD or RN shows up, I guess I'm closest thing we have to a doc.
- Weight lifting of light to moderate weights is positive, even for kids, but heavy weights and power exerices are bad, the can impact growth plates, and stunt growth. Young bones are also weaker than adult bones, they haven't had time to fully calcify and are soft (allowing for growth). Heavy weights could cause greenstick fractures, which are like stress fractures, but more extensive.
Mostly however, it's dangerous because kids are like anyone else who doesn't know how to use weights. I work out pretty intensively, 3-5 x a week with varying weights, and have spent a lot of time working on technique, both for results, and safety.
That said, this kid is recieving world class training, so I doubt they are doing anything to endanger his safety. It's possible he grows up to-- well, not up at all really since his growth plates could be damaged, but likely he'll be normal, if very strong.

The waves came crashing in like blindness.
So I just stood and listened.
