Weightlifting

Flex Wheeler American bodybuilder Kenneth "Flex" Wheeler, born on August 23, 1965, is now retired from the IFBB. Arnold Schwarzenegger once referred to him as one of the greatest bodybuilders he had ever seen after he won the Arnold Classic a then-record four times. According to what Ronnie "The King" Coleman said, Flex was the hardest bodybuilder he ever competed against. Wheeler had a brief career as a police officer before he decided to devote all of his time to becoming a professional bodybuilder. Although he entered competitions for the first time in 1983, it wasn't until 1989 that he won the NPC Mr. California Championships. He came in second place at the 1993 Mr. Olympia, missing out on a victory (something he was to repeat in 1998 and 1999). He has won the Arnold Classic four times, the South Beach Pro Invitational five times, the Night of Champions once, and the Hungarian Grand Prix once. He has also won the Ironman Pro five times. Wheeler was known for

 Powerlifting Bench press, deadlift, and squat are the three lifts that make up the powerlifting discipline. It involves the participant trying a maximal weight single-lift effort using a barbell laden with weight plates, much as the Olympic weightlifting competition. The sport of "odd lifts," which employed a three-attempt system akin to strongman competition but with a wider choice of events, gave rise to powerlifting. The three odd lifts that are currently used are the product of evenness through time. During competition, lifts may be performed with or without equipment (usually known as "classic" or "raw" lifting in the IPF specifically). The term "equipment" here refers to a bench shirt that support the body in lifting heavier weights, a squat and a deadlift suit, or a pair of briefs. Knee coverings are permitted in the unequipped category of several federations but not in the equipped level, and vice versa. When determining if a lift is equ

Thor Bjornsson Born on November 26, 1988, Hafór Jlus Björnsson, sometimes known as Hafthor in English, is a professional strongman from Iceland who is recognized as one of the best strength sportsmen of all time. He holds numerous Strongman championships from various strength federations, including numerous world records. He is the first and only competitor to win the Arnold Strongman Classic, Europe's Strongest Man, and the World's Strongest Man events all in the same calendar year. He is the third most decorated strongman in history with 30 victories in international competitions, behind Poland's Mariusz Pudzianowski and Lithuania's Ydrnas Savickas. Many analysts and strongman experts also refer to Hafór as "the strongest man to have ever lived" due to his overwhelming strength and dominance in every single strongman event. After receiving a wild card invitation to the 2011 competition, Hafór competed in World's Strongest Man and finished sixth. He compe

Strongmen A strongman or other comparable circus performers who displayed strength were referred to as strongmen in the 19th century. Competitions for strongmen, usually referred to as strength athletics, have gained prominence more lately. The winner of these competitions is the one who has the greatest tally across all events. These competitions currently consist of a number of events in which contestants must move the heaviest weights feasible. Building general strength in the weight room and practicing with competition implements are both essential components of strongman training. The entire body must be strengthened in the gym, especially with variations of the squat, deadlift, and overhead press. Cardiovascular fitness and explosive power, which are produced through weightlifting-style lifts, are also significant. Additionally, grip power needs to be improved. A strongman training plan involves equipment that is not generally seen at a gym, even if you can perform general streng

 -Bodybuilding The sport of bodybuilding first gained popularity in the 19th century, thanks to Eugen Sandow, a German man who is now known as the "Father of Modern Bodybuilding." In muscle flexing contests, he allowed the public to enjoy seeing his body. Using muscular hypertrophy to manage and aesthetically enlarge one's muscles is known as bodybuilding. It is distinct from comparable sports like powerlifting because it places more of an emphasis on aesthetic beauty than physical strength. Bodybuilding improves your physical and mental health, elevates your mood, releases stress and irritability, improves the quality of your sleep, helps you forget about worries and difficult situations in life, and helps you reclaim control over your body, mind, and life. Bodybuilders routinely exercise to maintain and increase their muscles, including both resistance and aerobic training. Resistance training increases muscular flexibility, growth, and strength. A reduction in mortalit

  - Ronnie Coleman Ronnie Dean Coleman, the 8-time Mr. Olympia, was an American bodybuilding legend who retired in 2007 due to severe injuries. He was nicknamed "The King" and is widely considered the greatest bodybuilder in Olympia history and began the mass monster era of bodybuilding. Ronnie started his career with a natural start. He started bodybuilding at the age of 24, and for the first six years of his career he didn't use any steroids. Due to his monster genetics, Ronnie had a huge physique that was full of muscles and had an amazingly low percentage of body fat. Even though Ronnie's physique was admirable, he still lost in competitions to other enhanced bodybuilders (steroids users). For that reason, he started taking steroids himself and shocked the whole world by doing what was beyond imaginable. In total, Ronnie earned a total of eight consecutive Mr. Olympia victories in-between 1998 and 2005. Not only did he win the title of Mr. Olympia eight times, he
