Powerlifting ranks: a tooltip for athletes

Powerlifting is a popular sport in Russia, which is actively developing now. In contrast to bodybuilding, the power characteristics are important in triathlon, and not the relief and beauty of the body. Competitions held by the Russian Powerlifting Federation at various levels of the country help to identify the most powerful athletes with well-developed physical characteristics that are able to withstand the resistance of the heaviest weight according to the results of the three basic exercises.

According to the results of regional and federal competitions held by the FPR, athletes are awarded titles that are recognized throughout the territory of Russia.

Thanks to the joint efforts of the IPF and the IDF to standardize all the conditions of the competition, this sport in the future can be included in the "Olympic Games".
