The researchers stated that self-talk affects performance. According to researchers, it can be said that positive self-talk can improve performance and have a more positive impact on the results obtained. Therefore, the purpose of the study is to analyze the self-talk (cognitive and motivational) in the snatch, clean and jerk movements of elite weightlifters. This research is applied in terms of purpose and descriptive-comparative in terms of data collection. The statistical population of present study included adolescent weightlifters and adult. Eligible people who volunteered to participate in the study were selected through the virtual groups of this field. And they answered the self-talk questionnaire in sports by Zervas et al (2007). To determine the sample size, the number of 5 to 10 times the questions, statistical sample was selected. Multivariate variance analysis and confirmatory factor analysis were used to analyze the data in the research. The findings showed that cognitive and motivational self-talk was more preferable in adult weightlifters than in adolescent. There is a significant difference between the self-talk of elite weightlifters based on snatch, clean and jerk movements. In a general conclusion, it should be stated that in order to train a perfect athlete in this Olympic discipline, in addition to basic and strength training, psychological training such as self-talk training in base age it should be done for the athletes of this field.
