Weight lifting vs. Bodybuilding
Many people confuse lifting weights with the sport known as bodybuilding. Although at first it may not seem like it, but these two sports are very different things.
Weight lifting involves the lifting of weights to build up strength and muscle mass. Another name for weight lifting is power lifting, which is when a person makes a point to lift heavy weights and build up their strength.
Bodybuilding, on the other hand, involves not only weight lifting, but body sculpting as well. Bodybuilding, unlike weight lifting, concerns itself with how proportional or developed the muscle groups are to the rest of a person’s body and it focuses on the cosmetics of weight lifting. To put it simply, bodybuilders are supposed to “look good” all the time.
