According to Robert Malina, an expert on childhood growth, adolescents gain weight and height in a predictable pattern, with height growth occurring first, followed by weight gain, or what I like to call âfilling out.â. The average peak height gain in girls occurs between 11 and 13, and in boys between 13 and 15 years of age. The lean tissue (muscles and bones) weight gain during this time is about 15 pounds for girls and twice that for boys (~30 pounds). Girls gain more fat (~6 pounds) on average than boys (~3 pounds) at this time as well. Given these norms for adolescent growth (and the signs that go along with it), you can begin to see that an important transformation happens in teens, and much of it is to be expected.
1 Dieting for teens is not recommended as quite often you will find they will simply grow out or their baby fat as they mature into young adults. 2  In the first year your newborn baby will on average gain 8 ounces in weight each month and have an average growth of around 1/4 to 1/2 inch a month. Be aware that Height and weight ratio charts are not truly accurate measures or indicators, this is especially so for young children and teenagers. 2  The average height to weight chart for girls and boys below represents a very rough average that should also be used in conjunction with the BMI Calculator for Kids.
