Powerlifter Jesus Olivares sets an unofficial world record by lifting a 903.9-lb (410-kg) deadlift

Jesus Olivares, who is just 24 years old, is already excelling in the field of powerlifting. Ray Williams, who has been considered one of the greatest powerlifters in the IPF, seems to have a new contender for the title in the powerlifting world. The two men share some similarities, apart from their passion for the sport, as they both excel in the squat event. However, Jesus Olivares seems to have a greater edge when it comes to the other two lifts.

The more important discussion, in this regard, is Jesus Olivares’ recent 410 kilogram (903-pound) deadlift during his training.

This 410-kilograms deadlift is the Unofficial IPF World Record in the +120KG weight class. Jesus Olivares shared it on his social media platform on October 7. Ray Williams only holds the official record in the over 120-kilogram weight class of 398.5 kilograms, which was set at the 2018 IPF World Classic Powerlifting Championships.

Jesus Olivares, who planted his feet firmly and grabbed the barbell with a mixed grip, did not seem to struggle to unofficially break the world record made by Ray Williams, as his attempts appeared to be very quick and full of energy. The only type of equipment Jesus Olivares used was the lifting belt. So, this attempt was raw according to powerlifting rules.
