There are two things you need to understand first. What is Snatch & What is clean & jerk? A snatch is When in one seamless motion, the weightlifter picks up the barbell and elevates it above their head. Moving on to the clean and jerk, this lift comprises two distinct phases. First, the weightlifter must lift the barbell and bring it up to their chest – known as the "clean." After a brief pause, they must extend their arms and legs to hoist the barbell above their head – the "jerk." The lifter has to maintain a straight elbow and hold the barbell aloft until a buzzer signals completion.

The lifter who opts for the lowest weight in their first attempt earns the privilege of going first. Once their name is called out, they must attempt the lift within one minute. Now Each weightlifter is granted three attempts for both the snatch and the clean and jerk. The best attempt in each lift is then combined to determine the total weight lifted by the athlete.
The participant with the highest combined weight lifted wins the competition. However, in the event of two participants lifting the same total weight, additional criteria are employed to decide the winner. If the weights lifted are equal, the lifter with the lower body weight takes the lead. And if, by a rare chance, the bodyweight remains identical, the lifter with fewer attempts will be declared the winner.
