Powerlifter Jesus Olivares Hits A Speedy 412 kg (907 lbs) Squat Single In Training 

The winner of the 2021 IPF World Classic Powerlifting Championships, Jesus Olivares, is continuing to lift some very heavy weight in training. In the latest addition to his Instagram profile, Olivares published a 412 kg (907 lbs) squat single from training. Even though his competition best is 427.5 kg (942.5 lbs), the spectacular speed of his latest squat is what makes it so impressive.

To aid him in the lift, Olivares used a lifting belt, knee sleeves and a pair of wrist wraps. He lifted the bar off the rack, slowly squatted down, and once he hit the required depth, explosively squatted back up.
