Kansas Wrestling Forums General Discussion Kids Folkstyle Should a child be lifting weights?

I think before a kid begins a weight program they should first spend time doing pushups and situps. when they master those exercises and can do a high amount of reps I think that would be a good time to add the resistance of weights with adult supervision.My 10 yr old has been lifting once or twice a week since Nov. with pushups and situps in between.We started this program after 2 yrs of push ups and situps.
