Inderraj Singh Dhillon Locks Out 395-kg (870.8-lb) Raw Deadlift Unofficial IPF World Record

One of the biggest powerlifters from Great Britain is Inderraj Singh Dhillon, who is mostly known for his impressive deadlift strength. Inderraj has an official World Record under his name, which makes him one of the greatest powerlifters in the world. Well, he is working extremely hard with the intention of remaining in possession of the record. As a result, Inderraj’s recent training session featured one of the greatest moments of his career, as he locked out a 395-kilogram (870.8-pound) deadlift. The lift is not only massive, but it is also an Unofficial U120KG IPF World Record, meaning something of this kind was never done in a competition.

Inderraj Singh Dhillon’s humongous deadlift was in the lines of regulations regarding raw powerlifting. So, he did not use any equipment apart from a lifting belt to complete the 395-kilogram (870.8-pound) deadlift. He positioned his lifting belt higher up than most people do. He then planted his feet and set up a conventional stance, grabbed the bar with a mixed grip, and began lifting. Inderraj moved at a steady pace, not slowing down during any portion of his lift. Once he reached lockout, Inderraj held the bar for a few seconds, displaying immense grip strength as well.

The current official U120KG IPF Raw Deadlift World Record is in possession of Inderraj Singh Dhillon. He set the record by deadlifting 386 kilograms (851 pounds) at the 2023 IPF World Classic Powerlifting Championships.
