A bit of info: An Olympic weightlifting meet consists of two lifts, the snatch, and the clean and jerk. There is a male group and female group. Each group has several weight classes. Each lifter gets 3 attempts for both lifts; the goal being to lift the heaviest possible weight. Scoring is calculated in several ways. At this meet, medals go to the top 3 totals (snatch and clean and jerk) in each group and class. Awards for top male and female lifters are based on the combined Sinclair (bodyweight) and Malone-Meltzer (age) coefficients.
