What to remember
Tepic, Mexico, 6 October 2026: at a qualification event for the Pan American Games, Colombia's Yeison López posted a total of 383 kg in the 85 kg class.
The total combines the snatch and the clean and jerk, and the International Weightlifting Federation keeps a total record for each weight class alongside the records for each lift. The classes were restructured in 1993, 1998, 2018, 2025 and 2026, each change nullifying the earlier records.
López was no newcomer to the top level: at the 2024 Summer Olympics he won the silver medal.
