西元 1984年的洛杉磯奧運，台灣男子舉重選手為台灣得到第一面奧運舉重獎牌。西元 2008年北京奧運，台灣在舉重項目共得到了兩面銅牌。因此，在國際賽場上，台灣舉重隊擁有優異的成績。台灣發展舉重運動已歷經有半個世紀。近幾年台灣舉重運動在國際間贏得了豐碩的獎牌與運動地位，而政府所提供的獎金制度、適時的引進有經驗的外國教練、及運動科學訓練的配合，促成了台灣舉重運動的成功。其實運動發展是一個動態且複雜的過程，其發展牽涉政府、運動員、教練等因素，彼此環環相扣，互為因果。本文以系統思考的因果反饋，嘗試解台灣舉重運動的發展，建構一個質性模型，由三個正反饋及一個負反饋形成的發展結構。

Taiwan weightlifting gained the first men weightlifting medal in Los Angeles Olympics in 1984. Taiwan got two bronze medals in Beijing Olympics in 2008. Therefore, Taiwan weightlifting has excellent performance in international games. The weightlifting has developed over fifteen years in Taiwan. In recent years, Taiwan won a lot of weighting medals and has an important position in international games. Furthermore, the government provide prize and introduce experienced foreign coaches in order to promote weightlifting. In fact, the development of weightlifting is a dynamic and complex process and the development relates government, students, athletes, and coaches. This study used the system thinking to explore the development of weightlifting in Taiwan. Furthermore, this study constructs a qualitative model which consists of three positive feedbacks and one negative feedback.
