This subreddit is for the sport of Olympic-style weightlifting, which tests the snatch and the clean and jerk, and related links and topics. Please keep general strength training, powerlifting, and other strength sports in their respective subreddits.

/r/weightlifting is:

* A place to discuss weightlifting theory, methodology, and programming in a professional manner
* A place to ask questions about form, training style, programming, or anything related
* A place where all weightlifters - regardless of training goals - are welcome
* A place where all members are held to a standard of excellence not found in larger subreddits

/r/weightlifting is **not:**

* A place to post memes, self promotional content/blogspam, or things that provide no value
* A place for you to post your NSVs or any other threads of similar nature. If the only discussion created is congratulating the OP, post it elsewhere. /r/fitness for example.
* A place to post sexual content of any sort, including comments on the attractiveness or lack thereof of any lifter.
* A place to post slurs or other derogatory remarks toward anyone's race, religion, gender or sexual identity.
* A place to diagnose injury or prescribe treatment addressing injury. If you believe you have an injury, the safest course of action is to consult a professional.
