Weightlifting is scored based on the total weight lifted in two main lifts: the snatch and the clean and jerk. Each lifter has three attempts for each lift, and the best successful attempt in each category is combined to determine the total score. The lifter with the highest total weight lifted wins in their weight category. Ties are broken by the lifter's bodyweight, with the lighter lifter winning in case of a tie.
