I. 起源: I. Origin:

健力原先稱為舉重,文獻上,希臘人及羅馬人都有舉重的紀錄;中國更是 早在兩千多年前的楚漢時期就有此類的活動。然而,新式舉重活動卻是興起於18世紀末,一開始盛行於歐洲。舉重登上國際舞台是在1896年,由希臘舉辦的第一屆奧運會上。一開始的舉重不分級別,舉的方式也只有單手舉和雙手舉兩種方式。「健力」這個項目是之後才從運動項目中獨立出來。 Powerlifting is originally called “weight-lifting.” Literally, there are records of weight lifting in Greece and Rome. As for China, this activity has existed in the Han dynasty. However, modern weight-lifting didn’t appear until the late eighteenth century. Weigh-lifting becomes international competitions when it became one of Olympics games. At first, there are no categories of bodyweight in weigh-lifting. There are only two lifts: single-hand lift and double-hand lift. “Powerlifting” was later derived from weigh-lifting.
