Russel Orhii has achieved several records, as well as other feats of strength, that rank among the highlights of the year. His success in breaking national and world records has continued for the past few years, which ultimately resulted in him becoming the IPF World Champion in 2021. However, his goals and aspirations changed a bit following his success. Consequently, Russel decided to pursue bodybuilding while also striving to lift as much weight as possible in powerlifting.  The good times keep rolling for Russel, as he recently posted a 765-pound (347-kilogram) raw squat lifetime PR.  

Russell Orhii’s physique looks absolutely amazing, as he has gotten quite shredded without losing muscle mass. However, he is obviously stronger than he has ever been, seeing that he squatted 765 pounds (347 kilograms) raw. Russel only utilized a lifting belt and knee sleeves, which is allowed in the raw division of powerlifting. Although his current bodyweight is not clear, Russel’s new squat PR could be an Unofficial World Record in many divisions.

Russel Orhii is currently 11 weeks out from some sort of competition, but it is not clear if that is in powerlifting or bodybuilding. It is also hard to construct an opinion based on his training, as he is constantly improving in both sports.

Russel Orhii did compete once this year already, which was at the 2022 USAPL Mega Nationals. Although he did put up a brilliant performance to set two National records, he did not manage to outperform his previous personal bests. Overall, During his powerlifting career, Russell has competed in 17 sanctioned competitions, winning 16.

Russel Orhii’s Competition PRs:

  • Squat: 323 kg (712.1 lbs) (2021 USAPL Raw Nationals)
  • Bench Press: 195 kg (429.9 lbs) (2019 IPF World Classic Powerlifting Championships)
  • Deadlift: 333 kg (734.1 lbs) (2021 IPF World Classic Powerlifting Championships)
  • Total: 843 kg (1858 lbs) (2021 USAPL Raw Nationals)

Russell Orhii expressed his interest in competing in a bodybuilding show earlier this year. However, that has not yet happened, and no announcement has been made regarding when it will happen. Nevertheless, Russell shares physique updates regularly on Instagram, and they are certainly impressive.

Seeing that we haven’t seen the best of Russel Orhii for more than a year, his newest achievement is a hint toward a tremendous comeback. Despite not knowing exactly when that will be, we do have a rough time estimate of 11 weeks. Whether it is powerlifting or bodybuilding, Russel will be remembered as one of the greatest powerbuilders.
