He took part in the 2012 and 2016 Olympics and won a bronze medal in the same 85-kg event in 2016.[2] Sîncrăian won two more medals at the European championships in 2012 and 2016.[3]

On 13 October 2016, the IWF reported that Sincraian had tested positive for excess testosterone in a test connected to the Rio Olympics, and he was stripped of the medal.[4]

In November 2020, the reanalysed doping tests from the 2012 Summer Olympics turned out positive for metenolone and stanozolol as well.[5]

In 2022 the International Weightlifting Federation annulled his results between 3 August 2012 and 17 January 2022. [6]
