As the level of weightlifting competition continues to improve, athletes need to continuously improve their athletic performance to achieve better results. However, we often see in training that some excellent weightlifters are often interrupted due to sports injuries, and their special ability and competitive level cannot be improved. How to effectively prevent sports injuries and reduce the incidence of sports injuries is a topic that needs to be grasped in the current sports team training process. The national weightlifting team attaches great importance to the role of technology in training and competitions. During the Tokyo Olympic preparation period, the concept of technology to help the Olympics has been fully implemented in the national weightlifting team. New training equipment, new monitoring methods, and new recovery methods have added more guarantees to the preparation of the national weightlifting team, improving athletes' competitive performance, reducing the risk of sports injuries, and ensuring the safety and health of athletes.
