    While protein is not steroids and is very safe, what is the point in giving any one extra protein if they do not need it.
    He will more likely be taking in way more calories than he need, which will make him gain weight including fat.
    Save your money.

    Also there is no magic pill or shortcuts in training, giving youngsters the impression that they need extra supplements such as protein or they will not make any progress is absurd.

    Tell him he does not need anything, the strength gains from 11-21, are phenomenal.

    Developing the right mental attitude is more important than relying on any pill or magic formula.

    Be careful which protein powder you give him, if any because alot of protein powders contain creatine.
    Again a safe and effective training supplement but not aimed at children.

    Go old school, and a pint of milk everyday will be enough protein he needs.
    I agree as I'm kinda old school anyway cheers and great advice thank you

    Could I say that all you should be doing,i s making it Fun. He is a Boy, just let Him eat a Balanced Diet Healthy Food.At this moment of Time a normal Boy is Fit. But His joints have not got the stability, to Train Hard without injury. Im workng with some young Footballers at the moment, From a big Pro Club. Problem, Trying to Hard, and having major problems with there Hips. Too much impact and hard work to young, be careful.
