Weightlifting: Know the Rules and Techniques

Weightlifting is a high-intensity and skill-based sport where the goal is to lift the heaviest weight in an extremely short period of time. Next, I'll give you some rules and techniques for weightlifting.

First, weightlifting consists of two movements: the snatch and the clean and jerk. The snatch involves grabbing a weight from the ground and then stabilizing it on your shoulders, then lifting the weight while your feet are stable. The clean and jerk involves lifting the weight from shoulder height to a position where the arms are straight. Weightlifting competitions usually consist of these two events. Athletes must complete multiple weightlifting movements within a specified time, and the final winner is the athlete who lifts the heaviest weight.

In terms of technique, weightlifting requires precise form and correct technique. For example, in the snatch, the athlete needs to hold the weight in both hands, then lift the weight in a quick but steady motion, then place the hands on the shoulders, and finally lift the weight suddenly in a quick, jerky motion. During the clean and jerk, athletes need to use their whole body strength to quickly throw the weight up, while raising their heads, raising their chests, and exhaling through their mouths to stabilize their body and weight, and stabilize the weight in a straight position with their arms.

For lifters, the recommendation is to focus on strength and sensitivity. In terms of strength, muscle strength needs to be improved by gradually increasing weight and building appropriate muscle fibers. In addition, exercise sensitivity can also be achieved through various training methods, such as jumping, crawling and flexibility training.

All in all, weightlifting is a sport that requires strength and skill. For trainers, they need to focus on improving strength and sensitivity, as well as refined skill training.
