When it comes to strength sports, which is best? And what's the difference anyway?
We're big fans of strength at BarBend, but it's time to clear up some misconceptions. First and foremost, not every strength sport is the same!
Weightlifting is different than powerlifting.
CrossFit is different than strongman.
And weightlifting, powerlifting, CrossFit, and strongman are ALL different than bodybuilding. In fact, of these four strength sports, aesthetics and appearance are NOT the main goals!
--
Each of these sports has its own benefits and potential drawbacks. We're not saying one is necessarily better than the other. We like to respect the differences, celebrate the similarities, and educate people about both.
barbend.com/weightlifting

No, these aren't ALL strength sports available to competitors and fans. But they ARE some of the most popular, and we cover each and every one quite a bit at BarBend.com!
--
In this video, we break down the common misconceptions and outline the differences (and some similarities!) between these four sports. What makes a weightlifting different than a powerlifter? Why don't you see athletes bench pressing in the Olympics?
We cover these questions and more in the video above!

I realise that resistance-/weight-training is overall good for increasing bone strength and density, but even out of the three, i.e. conventional bodybuilding, weightlifting, and powertraining, which one creates the highest bone strength and density (especially in legs, hips, and spine)? I'm around mid-30s in age and have not done resistance training until now with regularity, unfortunately. So I've missed the ship of creating most bone strength. But now i want to engage in the style of resistance training that makes me strong now, and keeps me strong in my old age too with minimal orthopedic problems. Please advise.

@SweatCookienese 3 года назад

This is what I was looking for, I'm working out lately and I really enjoy it but I don't know what style of lifting I want to get into, I really enjoy deadlifting and it's my best lift at 165 I struggle with squat and bench a ton I can't bench or squat more than like 55 lol. Anyways I was looking and most videos are just the 4 or 5 groups seeing whose tge strongest not explaining the difference

@ShawnNHL 3 года назад

I'm biased so I'll say PowerLifting lol But actually, I do recommend starting off with a powerlifting routine (I personally do the "nsuns 5 day program") because it'll give you the base for other lifting sports. With Powerlifting not only is it helping you build strength on 3 very popular lifts, but the accessories you do like front squats will directly translate to weightlifting and strongman. Weightlifting is a combo of squats and deadlifts, and if you deadlift is far better than your squat, then you won't be very successful for a while. So again, I recommend AT LEAST starting off with powerlifting before you branch into other areas like weightlifting or strongman. Heck, you may even like powerlifting so much that you decide to stick with it. Whatever you do, just don't do CrossFit

Weightlifting is a strength competition where the strongest people do not participate. Powerlifting is super cool if you are the type of person who think that you should bench press with a ROM of max 4". Crossfit is for people who don't know the difference between going on a swing set and a pullup. Strongman is for the actual strongest people.

Generally Olympic sports need to be very cosistent judging wise. Since Strongman varies constantly and are not as well regulated it will probably never be an Olympic sport.

@jorvey1445 2 года назад

Good looking - bodybuilding. But if you wanna improve your power and strength, do weightlifting training combined with some powerlifting training (squats and deadlift are actually a part of weightlifting training), like power snatch, power clean, or power jerk. Try to find the right techniques with low weights first! And do regular jumping (like playing basketball and jumping as high as you can to grab the rim or dunk) and sprinting workout! This will help you become more athletic! CrossFit helps you become more endurance but a lot of CF athletes don’t have the right techniques when doing strength training so their bodies are damaged a lot! So I suggest you to play soccer or do long distance running instead of doing CF (but don’t run too much since it’s bad for your knees and will reduce your muscles). Don’t try Strongman because this sport ain’t for normal people. You have to be an elite powerlifter first. Those athletes who won Strongman competition were considered the strongest men on Earth for a reason!

Look up streetlifting! It's another strength sport, just fairly new, in which the athletes compete into pullups, dips and squats (although many federations still use the muscle up, since the sport comes from calisthenics, which is not a strenght lift). Streetlifting might have both a max strength 1RM test and an endurance test, where the athletes perform the highest number of reps with a given added weight.

I have explained to people for years that weightlifting and powerlifting are classified as two different sports even though they are similar, and the objective is the same. Lift as much weight as you can. Weightlifting competition consists of the snatch along with the clean and jerk. Powerlifting competition consists of the squat, bench press and the deadlift. Weightlifters do some of the powerlifting lifts in training, but it comes down to what we all do in the competition meets. I explain this to people, and it goes in one ear and out the other! It drives me up a wall! People use to ask me: Are you still weightlifting? I have given up and tell them; NO AND I NEVER DID! It bugged me! I think the best analogy would be with baseball and softball. Both sports are very similar, but yet they are DIFFERENT with two separate classifications. I want people to know the difference because I think it's important that people know our true identity on the platform.

Lets be real, it’s offensive to call CrossFit s strength sport

@sublime9525 Год назад

Strongman is only reserved for big people. As a 5’9, 170 lbs guy, I can never be a strongman athlete.

Well…CrossFit isn’t a sport. Weightlifting involves the two most technical lifts and insane mobility and explosive power. Powerlifting involves three compound bread and butter movements and gorilla strength. (This can also be said about weightlifting at certain levels) CrossFit just involves shitty form, extreme ignorance and poor training. It’s also a joke. They aren’t even close to being on the same level of Olifters and powerlifters. Also incredibly dangerous….and a cult Strongman is lifting heavy shit and putting it down…a lot. And walking with it. They have crazy conditioning in addition to super strength along with some of the technical precision

Firstly i dont understand crossfit too but show some respect. Crossfit athletes are in my opinion the most well rounded athletes in the world. So in my opinion crossfit is weird but still a sport and crossfit athletes deserve so much respect.

Joseph not really. i would have respect for them if they are humble and actually know how to execute with proper technique. they ruin the fitness industry

Was this a flower power video cuz there were more clips of women lifting than men in what is a male-dominated sport.

Crossfit is the most athletic with the lowest weight, Strongman is the least athletic with the most weight. Weightlifting has the most standards and form requirements. Meanwhile Powerlifting is just ego lifting with terrible form.
