At the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing, Bayarmaa switched to heavier cl* by competing in the women's 63 kg division. Bayarmaa placed tenth in this event, as she successfully lifted 90:kg in the single-motion snatch, and hoisted 123:kg in the two-part, shoulder-to-overhead clean and jerk, for a total of 213:kg.
