| Old barbells in scary gym. |
Weightlifting, sometimes referred to commonly as
lifting, is a sport in which competitors attempt
to lift heavy weights mounted on steel bars called
barbells, the execution of which is a combination
of power, flexibility, and technique. The term "weightlifting"
is often informally used to refer to weight training.
Olympic weightlifting trains the athlete for functional
strength, utilizing the body's major muscle groups.
For this reason, the Olympic lifts are extensively
used in training for other sports such as rugby
and American Football... |
