In Olympic weightlifting and powerlifting competitions they actually have a formula. The formula determines by your weight and the amount that you lift who would be considered up by ratio someone who is the winner. If you are a fairly light girl and can put up some pretty good weight it can be difficult for people to compete with you. Some of the heavier girls can put up really good weight but if they’re at a high body weight the ratio might not put them in the winning category, if that makes sense
