Through an athletic standpoint, you must recognize strength and explosivity. Strength is just moving weight at however slow a speed it takes. Explosivity is acceleration, speed, or muscle twitch sensitivity. In most athletic events, it's better to be explosive than strong, though the best will have a good combination of both. The main powerlifts (squat, bench, deadlift---strength) should be supplemented with olympic-style lifts (clean and jerk, jerk press, snatch--explosivity) and obviously auxiliary lifts to have a good balance of both worlds. Just some thoughts......Once again I can't claim bodybuilding experience, as all my lifting applications were practical.
