List of world records in Olympic weightlifting

Updated: 11/5/2025, 10:29:31 PM Wikipedia source

This is a list of world records in Olympic weightlifting. These records are maintained in each weight class for the snatch lift, clean and jerk lift, and the total for both lifts. The International Weightlifting Federation (IWF) restructured its weight classes in 1993, 1998, 2018 and 2025 nullifying earlier records.
