Guess what? It’s time for 12.9! You will either be very excited or very disappointed to find out it is an Olympic Weightlifting meet! Athletes will begin with 5 Snatch Attempts followed by 5 Clean and Jerk attempts. This will have true O-lifting standards. NO PRESS OUTS will be counted as “good lifts.” There will be several platforms with barbells set-up. You will be grouped somewhat according to your bodyweight or former PR’s. Once a weight has been loaded and attempted, the weight on the bar cannot be decreased, only increased or remain at the same weight. Here’s an example of some other details to a meet.
Lifter A: Attempting Snatch at 100lbs – Fails
Lifter B: Originally going to Snatch 100lbs (wants to psyche out competitor/ make them tired) –Updates judge he/she will be now starting their first lift at 105lbs.
Lifter A: Has 2 Minutes Rest then must repeat their attempt at 100lbs or can notify coach he/she will also go up to 105lbs to rest more and make Lifter B attempt his/her Snatch.
Yes, there are a bit of mind games to these competitions.
Scoring: To determine fairness between weight classes we will be using the Sinclair coefficient calculator. Total up your highest Snatch + Clean and Jerk = Total (in kilos). The calculator will ask you a couple other easy questions to find your coefficient. Males will have whatever score the calculator spits out. Females will multiply their coefficient by 1.5.
Lifter A: Male – 69kg, Total – 189kg = 247.59
Lifter B: Female – 56kg, Total – 117kg = 157.69 x 1.5 = 236.53

Check out the shoulder fur on the guy in the second video around 8:40. He might be able to go down a weight class if he did some grooming. :)
