What is the difference between BODYBUILDING and POWER LIFTING?

Well, power lifting is just weight lifting, so as body building. Bodybuilding is for muscle mass and power lifting is for muscle strength, but what is the difference? how are the workouts different?

1. Bodybuilding is to look good for the audience when competing. Their workouts depends on if you're bulking or cutting. If you're bulking (gaining mass) then you'll use heavy weight and low reps when training. For cutting (getting ripped) it's vice versa. Low weight and high reps. Powerlifting is to compete for strength. Their workouts use extreme weight which is more of what a bodybuilder would use when bulking. Hope this has helped.
