Publisher's Summary
Moving stones was a common task for early humans, so heavy lifting is nothing new. Other than cavemen, ancient warriors are among the finest examples of why lifting weights is necessary to build muscle. Spears were often hurled long distances and carrying them required lifting bulky shields and swords. This demonstrates the possible advantages of using large weights during strength training. Greek warriors were known for their ability to hold large shields and swords, which significantly boosted their stamina.
There are now two weightlifting measurements available: Olympic lifting and powerlifting. Olympic weightlifting is a sport where two athletes compete to see who can lift the most weight while maintaining the correct technique to compete in the Olympic Games, particularly the boxing and wrestling disciplines.
