Who invented weight lifting?

Answer 1

There is no one single person credited with inventing Weightlifting. There are drawings in Egyptian tombs that show men engaged in weight lifting, so it really isn't an invention as much as it is something that has developed over the centuries.

Answer 2

There is no proof that there was a one single inventor, or that they were greek. There have been texts found in Egypt that show men lifting bags of sand to get stronger, and it is known that Chinese men would train before entering the army

Answer 3

Nobody invented it, it's just evolved as an idea since we've been able to lift ourselves off the ground with our legs and arms.
