Some kids want muscles like the bodybuilders on TV. Of course, they won't be able to achieve that much muscle mass until after puberty. Here are some ways to build muscle.
Steps
1 See a sports doctor. You will likely be offered muscle development options for children. The gym isn't always the best way to build muscle.Difficulty lifting weights can damage muscle tissue in children under the age of 18. 
2 Lift (very) light weight. Treadmills will work as well. When exercising in the gym, use dumbbells weighing 1 or 2.5 kg: this way you will not hurt your hands or damage them. 
3 Go in for sports or outdoor activities! This is the easiest way to build strong muscle. Simple hill cycling strengthens the leg muscles. 
4 If all else fails, then running warm-ups or push-ups are next of the simplest methods. Running strengthens the muscles in the legs, and push-ups strengthen the muscles of the arms. 
5 Try to enjoy your activities. Find the children's exercise CDs.
