PEDAGOGICAL SUPPORT OF THE PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT OF THE POWER TRAINING TEACHER IN THE CONDITIONS OF THE TECHNICAL UNIVERSITY
The origins of powerlifting were formed many centuries ago, at the dawn of human civilization. Every nation has vivid myths and legends about representatives of their biological species, endowed with tremendous, almost inhuman strength. Ancient images and written texts found in Greece, China and Egypt serve as proof that already in ancient times, men showed their physical strength not only in battle. In the XII century BC in China there were special tests for young people drafted into the army. In particular, they had to demonstrate their ability to lift heavy objects.
