This study aims to analyse the relationships between body composition, limb length and barbell kinematics in the performance of weightlifters. It consists of an observational and descriptive study of 19 athletes (12 men [28.50 ± 6.37 years old; 84.58 ± 14.11 kg; 176.18 ± 6.85 cm] and 7 women [27.71 ± 6.34 years old; 64.41 ± 7.63 kg; 166.94 ± 4.11 cm]) who met the inclusion criteria. A level I anthropometrist took anthropometric measures according to the methodology of the International Society for the Advancement of Kinanthropometry (ISAK), and the measurement of the barbell velocity was made with the software Kinovea. In terms of body composition, both genders are within the percentage range of fat mass recommended for this sport.

  • OG 16/028 2 Behdad Salimi & NOCIRI V
    Tribunal Arbitral du Sport Court of Arbitration for Sport Arbitration CAS ad hoc Division (OG Rio) 16/028 Behdad Salimi & National Olympic Committee of the Islamic Republic of Iran (NOCIRI) v. International Weightlifting Federation (IWF), award of 21 August 2016 Panel: Mrs Carol Roberts (Canada), President; Mrs Margarita Echeverria (Costa Rica); Mr Mohammed Abdel Raouf (Egypt) Weightlifting Decision of the Jury overturning a decision of the referees Field of play decision CAS jurisprudence has consistently reaffirmed that CAS arbitrators do not overturn the decisions made on the playing field by judges, referees, umpires or other officials charged with applying the rules of the game unless there is some evidence, which generally must be direct evidence that the rule was applied in arbitrarily or in bad faith. CAS arbitrators are not specifically trained in the rules of any or all sports and do not have the advantage of being present to observe the events. It would be unfair to a decision‐maker as well as to athletes to interfere with decisions made by match officials, who are the technical experts, in these circumstances. Other practical reasons for the “field of play” doctrine include the prevention of constant interruptions of the game by appeals to a judge or an arbitrator. 1 PARTIES 1. The First Applicant is an athlete from Iran in the sport of weightlifting (the “Athlete”). 2. The Second Applicant is the National Olympic Committee of the Islamic Republic of Iran (“NOCIRI”). 3. The Respondent is the International Weightlifting Federation (the “IWF”). 4. The first interested party is the International Olympic Committee (the “IOC”).

Thirty weight categories in three styles will be contested over seven days of competition. The Individual World Cup is serving as a substitute event for the 2020 World Championships. The event was canceled after not fulfilling the criteria set forth by the UWW Bureau. The criteria included having at least 8 of 10 of the top nations from the 2019 World Championships and 70% of total athletes participate in 2020. The Individual World Cup represents international wrestling's return to competition and will lay the groundwork for safety protocols and countermeasures around all competitions. This will be vital to ensure a safe environment for future competitions in the lead up to the Tokyo Olympics. The event has a prize pool of 300,000 Swiss Francs, which will be divided evenly across the 30 weight categories. Thirty-one returning world medalists, including five returning world champions, are entered in the field. Olympic champion Davor STEFANEK (SRB) will compete at 67kg (Photo: Gabor MARTIN, United World Wrestling) The Individual World Cup opens Saturday with Greco-Roman competition, which will be headlined by four Rio Olympic champions: Artur ALEKSANYAN (ARM) at 97kg, Davit CHAKVETADZE (RUS) at 87kg, Davor STEFANEK (SRB) at 67kg and Roman VLASOV (RUS) at 77kg.
