Lovepreet Singh is an Indian weightlifter who competed in the 109 weight category at the 2022 Commonwealth Games (Birmingham), where he secured a bronze medal creating a national record of 192 kg in clean and jerk.Lovepreet Singh first developed an interest in weightlifting when he was 13 after watching a bunch of kids in his locality lifting weights. However, for Lovepreet, who grew up watching his father sew garments in his store outside their two-room village residence, lack of money was the biggest obstacle which stood his weightlifting career.When Lovepreet was in class eight senior weightlifters from his village Heera Singh and Rupinder Singh started training him. While Heera Singh is a weightlifting coach, Rupinder Singh is in CRPF (Central Reserve Police Force).He has been participating in weightlifting events since his school days at D.A.V.Lovepreets family has a humble background with a tailor father and vegetable seller grandfather who earned scanty incomes. To supplement his fathers meagre income, Lovepreet started working with wholesale vegetable vendors in Amritsar mandi via which he sustained his weightlifting dream. The hectic job required him to reach Mandi by 4 am, rush back home by 6 am, get ready, and leave for training. In an interview, his father while recalling Lovepreets struggles said, My income was not enough and he knew that. So, he started working part time at Amritsar vegetable mandi. He used to earn around Rs 300 per day which he used to spend on his diet and other requirements. His father also shared that they did not even renovate their shabby house as a big portion of their income was spent on Lovepreets requirements for weightlifting.Apart from lending a hand to his grandfather in selling vegetables, Lovepreet also worked as a Ghodiwala at weddings, chauffeuring around the grooms mare.

In an interview in 2022, Lovepreets brother said, He appeared in the Indian Navy trials and got selected. He has been working as Havildar there for more than five years now. That helped him and us a lot. Harpreet also revealed that their grandfather and uncles used to pool in money to make sure Lovepreet continued with his weightlifting training.After seven years of hard work and determination, he was inducted into the national camp in Patiala.He is a member of the Chandigarh Amateur Weightlifting Association.At the 2021 IWF World Championships, he ranked 12th in the 109 kg weight category with a total lift of 348 kg, with 161 kg in snatch and 187 kg clean & jerk.
