The roots of Weightlifting Fitness are far from where we know it. The historical fact shows us that were clearly signs that in ancient Greece and Rome.
For instance, the tombs drawing walls indicate people with weightlifting bags full of sand. Although evidence revealed that our ancestors were much preoccupied to take care of their health and physique, one of the theories was that weightlifting was more a survival thing.
Bearing in mind that the zone conflicts and wars weren’t so hard to imagine that the principal characteristics of the fighters were power, speed and weight as most of the fights were bare hands.
For this reason, the training was imperative to improve those qualities and to benefit from the war field. Olympic sports such as discus throwing, launching, hammer throwing, spear throwing demonstrates the basic needed abilities.
In reality in 1896 Weightlifting was formally introduced in the Olympics in Athens. In the beginning, just the man could participate.

What’s the most important thing in life than to have, to get using the body with a nice & smooth routine? Breakfast, lunch, dinner I know I know, I start to be as a robot, to repeat myself, what’s the healthy food and that and that but is not nonsense.
Craving, the pure addiction for sweet things, non-healthy fizzy drinks, unbeatable popcorn ohhhhhh man! We can not continue the discussion without first talking about nutrition.

It is so true that even if you just spend ten minutes working out in your office or personal area that you can see an amazing difference in how you look and feel. The important thing is to DO it and make it a habit, and then it will become a normal part of life. Exercising and then avoiding junk food is so important – eat real food! I also like to mention how important it is to rest and get good nights’ sleep.

Hi, thanks for this great weightlifting Fitness article. It is interesting that in the past weightlifting was all about survival and not to simply feel and look good like today. Being able to use the weightlifting qualities in a war situation is worth the exercise LOL! My favorite alternative to weightlifting is running because when you run you exercise your whole body and keep it all fit and strong!

Hi, thank you Nedia for the comment. Some prefer to run an alternative to weightlifting (ps. I can do this anymore bcs of my pet, he just run faster then me, is just gone as speed light) but for some it is a saying that to much run could damage the knees. So, yes I do believe that any workout activity is good for the benefits of body
