Convince me weight lifting isn't useless for sports.What advantage is there to do some specific compound or isolation exercise instead of just practicing the sport or specific movement within the context of your sport?I'm talking about real sports that require actual skill and finisse btw not strongman or handegg retardation. You'll punch harder by punching more times, you'll be shiftier and quicker in basketball or soccer by playing it in real world scenarios.
