Abstract
The application of cybernetics to sport is based on two fundamental premises: logical organization of training and adaptation of loads to the real needs of the athlete at any given time. Thus, the aim is to achieve efficient selection of weightlifting exercises by means of an algorithm based on technical efficiency indexes, making it possible to undertake appropriate adjustments in the selection of exercises in accordance with the performance of weightlifters in a number of the most important weightlifting exercises. The cybernetic model described may be a useful tool for establishing which exercises are most necessary for a given weightlifter.
