Taekwondo requires stretching ligaments, which is easier the younger you are. As you age, the ligaments become fixed, making it harder to stretch them, and it will be more painful when practicing. You are only 14 years old, it is relatively easy. Don’t be afraid of the pain, it will get better with practice. The earlier you start practicing martial arts, the better. Haven't you heard of Tongzi Kung Fu? Kung Fu should be practiced from childhood. Besides, your second year of junior high school is a good time. As you get older, the pressure of studying will become greater and greater. If you work so hard to pass the entrance exams, you won’t have time to learn Taekwondo. So I suggest you start learning now.

As for the statement that your legs will become thicker, it is not true. Not only will it not become thicker, but exercise will also reduce fat, increase bone density and muscle elasticity, make the body more slender and even, and make girls healthier and more beautiful. You should know that it doesn't take much strength to kick up a leg. A not very strong leg is enough to easily lift its own weight, so there is no need to thicken the muscles, which will not make the legs thicker. The reason why most people cannot kick their legs is not because of the weight of their legs, but because the ligaments at the base of the legs are in a contracted state, pulling the legs downward with force. This force is relatively strong, and people who have not stretched their ligaments cannot overcome it, so it is difficult to lift their legs and kick. By stretching the legs and doing splits to open up the ligaments, many movements can be performed easily without using much effort, and the legs will not become thicker.
