writes: I asked a question a short time ago about how my confidence is so little when I am at school. From what I can gather I need to make myself - be myself. I need to stop careing about what others could think of me and be who I am. But I get so bitter after a bad day at school, and I think I could have found an alternative. Do you think lifting weights is a possibilaty. The more irratated I get the longer I do it for, it could be like an anger therapy, I would make me feel stronger. I get so mad and I need to take it out on something, if I forced myself to lift heavy weights it I'd be able to take all that anger out with pain, wouldn't I?

Do they play football in your country? or im sure you could wrestle? or go find a training gym, and inquire into boxing, or mma training! bro I lifted weights and started juicing when I was in 9th grade,(14yrs old) it was extremely stupid of me, and now the slightest wrong movement gives me sprains, and rips, you dont need to max out, if you think lifting is a good release for aggression, you should try punching a bag bro!! seriously!

Actually, any form of excercise would do (I play badminton). the only thing I would say about weights is to watch the actual weight of them - don't lift anything too heavy for yourself as this can cause all sorts of problems! Good luck - BE YOURSELF!

dont go your whole life worrying about what people think about you, on the other hand u have to have some street scred so get up half an hour earlier in the morning, put some make-up on, straighten you hair, put some dress jewerary on, pamper yourself, FEEL GOOD ABOUT YOUR SELF! and i bet as soon as you feel more confident in yourself,other people will be more confident in you, if u feel good about your self people will feel more good about you and take more interest in you x
good luck hope this helps x

Taking on too much will only damage you and your bones are not yet fully matured so you can end up damaging your bone structure for life. Good idea about taking your anger out on something though! Just not very heavy weights. Start with weights that are lighter and build up naturally with more weights as is logical for someone of your age. Maybe get an instructor to guide you to how to do it safely. Also, if the weights aren't enough, take a good long run/jog, outside, or inside on a treadmill. A good sweat is a great way to release built up tension and anger.

I think that's a great idea. Just make sure you don't lift something too heavy and damage your back. Go or it.
