Powerlifting
Powerlifting is a strength-focused sport that revolves around three primary lifts: the squat, bench press, and deadlift. It emphasizes maximum strength development through progressive overload and proper lifting techniques. Powerlifting is ideal for those looking to increase raw strength, enhance muscle endurance, and improve overall athletic performance. With structured training and consistent progression, individuals can achieve significant gains in power and resilience. Some gyms may offer personalized coaching or strength assessments to help lifters track progress and refine their technique.
Strength Training Principles
Powerlifting training focuses on heavy, compound movements performed with low repetitions and high resistance. Techniques such as periodization, proper bracing, and controlled tempo are essential for maximizing strength and preventing injury. Workouts are designed to target key muscle groups involved in each lift, ensuring balanced development and improved performance. Some programs may incorporate mobility work and recovery strategies to enhance flexibility and reduce strain on joints.
