What is Powerlifitng
Powerlifting is both a strength focused style of training and a sport. Powerlifting style training focuses on developing total body strength through compound multi-joint strength training systems. The sport of powerlifting tests your absolute strength in the Big Three Barbell lifts: The Squat, The Bench Press, & The Deadlift.
Perhaps the most foundational movement anyone can do with our without a barbell. Everyone squats nearly every day - simply sitting and standing is a squat. Powerlifting squats just do that with a barbell!
The purest expression of raw upper body strength is the bench press. What might be an ego test amongst high school boys turns out to be an amazing way to build strong shoulders and arms!
Total body strength and mental toughness built into one movement. Lifting a heavy weight off the floor is among the great displays of a person's true strength and grit.
Powerlifting meets are main consideration for athletes in the sport. This is the opportunity to put months of hard work to the test! Your main objective is the earn the highest total possible. Your total is the sum of your heaviest Squat, Bench, and Deadlift of the day combined.
