    Long Qingquan (simplified Chinese: 龙清泉; traditional Chinese: 龍清泉; pinyin: Lóng Qīngquán, born December 3, 1990, in Longshan, Xiangxi, Hunan) is a Chinese weightlifter. He is a two-time Olympic champion in the 56 kg weight division.

    Career[edit]

    Long qualified for the 56 kg class at the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing,[1] where he won a gold medal in the 56 kg weightlifting. He achieved two junior world records on his way to winning the gold in the men's weightlifting 56 kg category.[2][3] The following year, he won the gold medal in the 56 kg category at the 2009 World Weightlifting Championships, with 292 kg in total.[4]

    Long failed to defend his title in 2010, losing out to compatriot Wu Jingbiao, and did not qualify for the 2011 Championships.[5] He again lost out to Wu during the national trials for the 2012 Summer Olympics in London.[6] Long took silver at the next World Championship meet in 2013, behind 2012 Olympic champion Om Yun-chol, and a bronze medal in 2014. He failed to register a lift at the 2015 World Weightlifting Championships.

    At the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro, Long won a gold medal in the 56kg category with a new world record of 307 kg, surpassing Halil Mutlu's world record of 305 kg set at Sydney Olympics 16 years ago.[7]
