Lisa's achievements in weightlifting cannot be underestimated. The proud Indonesian lifter has a high competitiveness in competing. Moreover, in his blood, it has flowed from athletes. His father, Levi Rumbewas, a bodybuilder and his mother, Ida Korwa, was a weightlifter.
This combination makes Lisa's life feel good with a hard struggle. The woman who was born on Biak Island, September 10, 1980, already knew the world of weightlifting from a young age. Every day Lisa was trained by her parents.

Lisa's participation gained world attention. Because, he managed to present a silver medal for the Indonesian nation and state. Lisa's trust also increased. He again proved himself to participate in different classes, 53 Kg at the 2004 Athens Olympics.
Lisa has again proven that she is able to bring home a silver medal. The victory was greeted with great fanfare.
At that time, Ida ( Lisa's mother) could not do much because of the limited access to enter the arena during the 2020 Sydney Olympics. Meanwhile, the medical team in the main arena could not do much. From a distance, Ida can only say prayers.
Moments later, a miracle finally came and Lisa was able to continue the match. Lisa carried out a total lift of 185 kilograms (80 kg snatch, 105 kg clean and jerk). Lisa, who won the silver medal, looked flat on her podium at that time, "said Nasrun Katingka in his writings in Kompas Daily entitled Raema Lisa Rumbewas, After Series of Long Victorys (2024).

The bronze medalist, Nastassia Novikava from Belarus was found to be unsportsmanlike at the Beijing Olympics. As a result, it benefited Lisa. The bronze medal for Novikava was canceled in October 2016. Therefore, Lisa, who took fourth place, rose to third place and was entitled to a bronze medal.
