Results

Forrester Osei's competition results

Every result, newest first, with all six attempts. A struck-through weight is a missed attempt and a dash an attempt not taken. A dash under Total means no total was recorded, and "No lifts" that the lifter was entered but did not lift. Places are for the total. A row that names two events was one competition scored for both; its places can differ because each ranks its own field.
