Top science tips for competing in Olympic weightlifting

What separates athletes who perform in training from those who deliver on the platform?


Competition in Olympic weightlifting is not just about strength or technique: it’s about decision-making under pressure, attempt selection, managing arousal, and executing when it matters most. While many coaches rely on tradition or intuition, there is a growing body of research that helps us understand what actually drives success on competition day.


In this 60-minute live webinar, you’ll learn how to apply science studies to competition strategy in Olympic weightlifting. We’ll break down key findings from research and translate them into practical strategies you can use immediately in the next competition.


This session will give you a clear, evidence-based framework for approaching competition with confidence. The webinar is planned for 60 minutes, plus live Q&A at the end.


About the Presenter

Alex Macznik, PhD is a weightlifting coach, researcher, and the founder of Evidence Strong, a platform dedicated to translating sports science into practical coaching insights for Olympic weightlifting and strength sport professionals.

With a PhD background and years of experience analyzing and communicating research in weightlifting and sports science, Alex helps coaches and lifters cut through misinformation and focus on what actually matters.

Alex’s goal with this webinar is simple: to help Olympic lifters and coaches approach warm-ups with greater confidence by clearly separating what we know, what we don’t yet know, and how to apply research sensibly in real-world training and competition.
