Why do you want to train with weights? You should ask yourself this question before you start a weight training program. If you have a specific reason for weight training or goals you want to accomplish then you will more than likely choose the style of weight training that will help you attain those goals. What are your goals with weightlifting? If you are looking to achieve power and strength then you should consider a powerlifting routine. Powerlifting comprises what it says – lifting weights to gain power. There are three major lifts in powerlifting – the bench press, squat and deadlift. A powerlifting routine will center itself around training to improve these lifts. If you are looking to achieve a sculpted body with ripped muscles then you will want to perform a bodybuilding routine. Bodybuilding routines focus on developing the look of your individual muscles by toning inflatable boats and shaping them. These muscle building workouts will help you achieve muscle definition so you can look your best in your summer beach wear! So what’s the difference between a powerlifting routine and a bodybuilding routine? Bodybuilders train with higher repetitions and higher number of sets per body part while powerlifters use lower repetitions and a lower number of sets per bodypart. For example, when working on developing the bench press lift a power lifter may do some variation of the following: Bench press, Incline bench press, Military press, Bent-Over-Rows and Skull crushers. Sets and repetitions may look like this – 4 to 6 sets of 4 to 6 repetitions of each exercise. The amount of weight lifted should force you to struggle to complete each set and each repetition to constantly challenge the muscles. This type of lifting strengthens the muscles and makes you stronger.
