If ya wanna get technical. Weightlifting is Olympic Lifting. Calling it Olympic Lifting is more of a new thing/misnomer. It is just known as weightlifting. lol
And that's because sooo many noobs that just go to the gym say they do weightlifting. I know they mean they lift weights, not weightlifting as in the sport. So...as weightlifting has
grown in popularity over the past 5-7 years, people have had to start using the term oly or olympic lifting so regular folk/most people at a regular gym know they're talking about something different. You'll even hear top names in the sport use the term "oly".
