Will this stunt my growth?

[Kilfy]

I am 14, 5'3 and thinking of doing leg exercises (non-weighted) like calf raises leg extensions etc.

If I start these exercises will they stunt my growth?

That’s a myth.

And fourteen isn’t really that young for strength training. I was introduced to it during “voluntary” workouts the summer before freshman year (age 14), and everyone was encouraged to take care of their PE requirements and enroll in strength and conditioning as soon as possible. I took PE that summer and fall, and I was enrolled in strength and conditioning every semester starting with 2nd semester of freshman year.

Just lift with proper form and you’ll be fine.

Yeah, you should be good to lift at 14.
Also, stretch every morning when you wake up and right before bed to give yourself the best opportunity to grow taller.
