when can you call yourself a bodybuilding/weightlifter/powerlifter

I'm no body builder. I want to be one day and maybe I will get there and maybe I won't but I am a weight lifter as that's what i do.
 
A physical culturalist
Yeah, this. :p

Physical culture, that's my thing. :cool:

Fucked if I know. I don't call myself anything. I just lift stuff, and like the process of getting stronger, and bigger.

Seems to me the only people who should call themselves powerlifters are the ones competing. But again, I don't know for sure. Bodybuilders? Meh. For all I care, anyone could call themselves that. Building your body? Right-o then. :)
 
He competed. And won his class.

Certified bodybuilder now?

Yep. Still could call himself a bodybuilder at that point if he wanted, just a shit one.

Just like some hack that never trains playing 2s footy in some shit country league. He is still a footy player just not a very good one.
