What is "powerlifting"?

Powerlifting is a strength sport that focuses on three main lifts: the squat, bench press, and deadlift. The goal in powerlifting is to lift as much weight as possible in each of these three exercises. Athletes compete in weight classes to determine the heaviest total weight they can lift across all three lifts. Powerlifting emphasizes raw strength, with competitors working to build muscle and increase their lifting capacity. It is a sport that requires intense training, proper technique, and a focus on maximal strength in specific movements.
