powerlifting vs weightlifting
powerlifting tests limit strength (with or without lifting aids),
weightlifting tests ballistic limits (explosive strength) with smaller weights, such that the lifts must be executed faster and with more mobility, because of a greater range of motion during the lifts.
why powerlifting should be called forcelifting
and olympic weightlifting should be actually termed "power-lifting".
