Weightlifting, powerlifting and bodybuilding

Weightlifting is two overhead lifts, the snatch and the clean and jerk, with three attempts at each. Powerlifting is three, the squat, the bench press and the deadlift, and the best of each makes the total: Three Lifts, One Total. Bodybuilders are judged on stage for size, symmetry and posing, hence Symmetry Society.

Swole and knurl

Swole is slang for having large, well-developed muscles: Swole Searching, Body and Swole. Knurling is the crosshatch pattern cut into a bar to help the grip, which gives the women weightlifters Knurlfriends and Knurls Night Out.
