Weightlifting returns to the 2024 Paris Olympics with men and women competing in 5 different weight classes using two lift techniques. Each lift is performed 3 times, and the best lift in each is combined for an overall score. The highest-combined scores win the medals. Weightlifting has been dominated by two countries, but the US aims to improve its standing in Paris.
