Strength training differs from bodybuilding , weightlifting , powerlifting , and strongman , which are sports rather than forms of exercise , although training for them totally depends on strength training . Many other sports use strength training as a part of their training regimen , notably football , lacrosse , basketball , hockey and track and field .
See the resistance training article for information about elastic\/hydraulic training , but note that the terms `` strength training '' and `` resistance training '' are often used interchangeably .
