Weight training will stunt your growth, yes.
I heard that weight training will only stunt growth if you take supplements such as steroids which i would strongly discourage.
Otherwise weight training done sensibly combined with chin ups will help develop you muscles. Try and mix up the exercises you do and go for an round routine.
If you want to bulk go for a heavier weight and and aim for 6 to 10 reps, if you want to tone drop the weight and aim for more reps.
Its not suggestable in this year.. you can do the ground works like pushups and hang yourself. dont Try any thing which makes your body fit now.
its from my own life experience also..
Its a possibility. Lay off the weights until you are about 18. Until then do bodyweight exercises. Go to www.mattfurey.com and buy his Combat Conditioning book. It has some great exercises you can do with your own bodyweight.

Doubtful. However, the way that a developing body should do resistance training is different than a fully developed body. You will want to keep the weights a bit (but not much) on the low side and go for a high amount of reps - somewhere in the 15-25 range.
