The increase in size or mass of a skeletal muscle. This may be due to a change in the fiber number or size. Any process that stops, prevents or reduces the frequency, rate or extent of skeletal muscle growth. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of skeletal muscle growth. The increase in size or mass of an entire organism, a part of an organism or a cell, where the increase in size or mass has the specific outcome of the progression of the organism over time from one condition to another. Any process that stops, prevents or reduces the rate or extent of development, the biological process whose specific outcome is the progression of an organism over time from an initial condition (e.g. a zygote, or a young adult) to a later condition (e.g. a multicellular animal or an aged adult). The developmental sequence of events leading to the formation of adult muscle that occurs in the anima. In vertebrate skeletal muscle the main events are: the fusion of myoblasts to form myotubes that increase in size by further fusion to them of myoblasts, the formation of myofibrils within their cytoplasm and the establishment of functional neuromuscular junctions with motor neurons. At this stage they can be regarded as mature muscle fibers. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of developmental growth. Any process that stops, prevents or reduces the frequency, rate or extent of skeletal muscle tissue development. Any process that stops, prevents or reduces the rate or extent of growth, the increase in size or mass of all or part of an organism. Any process that stops, prevents or reduces the frequency, rate or extent of developmental growth. Any process that stops, prevents or reduces the frequency, rate or extent of striated muscle development. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of skeletal muscle tissue development.
