A member asked:

Can you tell me is nine inch biceps good for a thirteen year old?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No: That sounds too large. Weight training is ok for young boys but should be well supervised. Good trainers have them do lower weights but more repetitions. Too much weight may cause injury.
