The year of 2010 should be considered as a hard year for the Asian Weightlifters . Since the steel-men of this wide continent in 2009 have owned the all international  titles and now it’s expected them to gain the same honors in 2010.

The current year started by holding the Arab Championships in the two categories of the Youth and Junior for the Asians and after that , the 11th South Asian Games were held in Bangladesh. However,  beyond the inter–continental competitions such as  the Asian Youth and Junior Championships to be held in Tashkent , the Common Wealth in India , the  Asian Interclub Championships in Jordan and the Asian Games in 2010 in Guangzhou that are fields for the Asian Competitions , the most important competitions like the World Youth Championships in Bulgaria  ( in June ), the 2nd World University Students Competitions in Chinese Taipei ( in July ) the Youth Olympic in Singapore ( in August ) and the World Senior Championships in Turkey ( in September )will be faced by the Asian Weightlifters and the variety of them has caused they  confront with difficulty in reaping the super titles .

On the other hand , when we refer to the results of the 2009 International battles , we notice that in the all international scenes , the titles of championships in the two categories of the Men and Women allocated to the Asians so, it can be said that the expectation from the Asian weightlifters  has increased. In the 1st World Youth Weightlifting Championships , held in Chiang Mai  , Thailand , Iran in the Boys category and China in the Girls category became the first.
In the World Junior Championships , the Asian Women and Men placed on the first Stance in 11 weights and proved that the world expects their constant shining.

Anyway , the World Senior Weightlifting Championships held in Go Yang , S. Korea , was in fact some repetition of the Beijing Olympic happenings . In these competitions the Chinese reaped almost all the medals and became Champion in the two categories of Men and Women . Of course in the two categories the Korean became the second so as to be shined the talents of the Asian more than before . In fact , it’s expected it will go on the success of Asian lifters and the field of Bulgaria , Turkey , Singapore and Chinese Taipei , will be another venue for the wide continent of Asia to be glorified .
