CHAPTER

Different Types of Athletes and Their Qualities

The chapter discusses the various types of athletes, including powerlifters, weightlifters, strongman competitors, crossfit athletes, bodybuilders, and sprinters, and delves into the unique attributes that make each group excel in terms of muscle strength and endurance.
