Abstract

Studies in weightlifting have been characterized by unclear results, and paucity of information. This is due to the fact that enhancing the understanding of the mechanics of successful lift requires collaborative contributions of several stakeholders such as coach, nutritionist, biomechanist, and physiologist as well as the aid of technical advances in motion analysis, data acquisition, and methods of analysis. Currently, there are still a lack of knowledge sharing between these stakeholders. The knowledge owned by these experts are not captures, classified or integrated into an information system for decision-making. In this study, we propose an ontology-driven weightlifting knowledge model as a solution for promoting a better understanding of the weightlifting domain as a whole. The study aims to build a knowledge framework for Olympic weightlifting, bringing together related knowledge subdomains such as training methodology, biomechanics, and dietary while modelling the synergy among them. In so doing, terminology, semantics, and used concepts will be unified among researchers, coaches, nutritionists, and athletes to partially obviate the recognized limitations and inconsistencies. The whole weightlifting "training-diet-competition" (TDC) cycle is semantically modelled by conceiving, designing, and integrating domain and task ontologies with the latter devising reasoning capability toward an automated and tailored weightlifting TDC cycle.
