Abstract :
Weightlifting is a game of strength, speed and technique. It is largely practiced all over the world. In the present study, attempts have been done to study physiological profile of novice weightlifters. We have measured various anthropometric and physiological parameters such as height, body weight, grip strength, blood pressure, etc. We have found that practicing of weightlifting significantly increases strength, aerobic capacity and cardiovascular efficiency as training period increases. It is also observed than adaptations due to weightlifting are gender specific
