Olympic Weightlifting for all sports and athletes
Weightlifting is made of two movements: the clean and jerk and the snatch. The goal is to lift as much weight as possible in the appropriate weight category for each movement to obtain the highest total weight lifted possible.
The practice of weightlifting as a training method for a sport allows the athlete to develop his power, strength, endurance, flexibility and mobility with high efficiency and precision.
The practice of weightlifting can be wrongly seen as dangerous for the athlete, which is totally wrong. A study of sport-related injuries in Quebec shows that weightlifting is one of the sports with the least trauma, 3%. Handball, hockey or gymnastics represent respectively 31%, 20% and 9% of injuries*.
