Cailer Woolam Broke The Record By Deadlifting Insane Amount Of 948lbs
This past weekend a powerlifter Cailer Woolam aka doctor deadlift competed against some of worlds strongest athletes in the 100kg/200Ilb weight class at World Raw Powerlifting Federation (WRPF) World Championships.
Woolam, 24, weighed 98kg on the day of competition, just shattered his all-time world record by hitting an insane 948lbs/430kg deadlift.
He pulls overall weight of a 907kg/2,001 lb total. He finished the squats with a 272.5kg/601 lbs lift and hit 205kg/452 lbs for the bench press on his second attempt and nearly missed a 210kg/463 lbs third attempt at the lockout.
Woolam posted a video of deadlift on his Instagram page, which says he breaks his 100kg all-time world record:
948lbs/430kg to break the 100kg all time world record ..again lol. 2nd attempt deadlift. Heaviest deadlift in competition by any American ever Reguardless of gear or weigh class. And it secured me a 2001lb total in sleeves @ 98kgbw. Happy I was able to make it happen on the other side of the world in a different time zone. 4th meet in a row to break an all time world record. I am beyond pleased to walk away with a PR total after all of my Injuries and setbacks this year. And with little to no squat training leading up to the meet. The challenge of traveling across the world and competing was very hard, but I did my best to show up and do what I could do. Easier off the ground with the big plates. But very very hard to control the bar whip at the top for those wondering. Amazing meet here in Moscow! #wrpfworldchampionship
In another video on his social media, Woolam shared a third and fourth attempt deadlift with an insane 440kg/970 lbs.
Do you think any lifter will able to break this feat down the road?
