Russel Orhii Meet

One of the world’s greatest powerlifters, Russel Orhii, recently traveled to Seoul, South Korea to compete in the 2022 USAPL Korea Winter Showdown. While Orhii typically competes in the 82.5-kilogram weight class, he made the decision to jump up to the 90-kilogram weight class for this particular competition. Despite the increase in weight class, Orhii still managed to come out as the best lifter in the U90KG raw division, as well as score some career-high lifts.

The sport of powerlifting consists of three lifts: the squat, bench press, and deadlift, to set the Total score. Russel Orhii set new competition personal records (PRs) in three out of the four events at the 2022 USAPL Korea Winter Showdown. He started off strong with a 340-kilogram (749.6 pounds) squat competition PR, which was an impressive feat of strength in what is his greatest event. Russel then moved onto the bench press, where he lifted a respectable 195 kilograms (429.9 pounds).

But it was in the deadlift where Russel Orhii truly shone. He lifted a massive 350 kilograms (771.6 pounds), setting a new competition PR and solidifying his position as the best lifter of the 90-kilogram weight class. When all three lifts were combined, Orhii’s total came out to 885 kilograms (1,951.1 pounds), also a new competition PR for him.

“I decided to compete at 90kg so I can enjoy the full Korean experience which in turn led to me putting together a pretty good performance.

This was a HUGE meet PR AND I managed to secure the best 90kg total for the year while maintaining the top spot for 82.5kg 💪🏾”
