Phillip Herndon<\/a> is not one to tip-toe around a loaded barbell<\/a>. As his competitive resume and Instagram profile of training<\/a> feats illustrate, he’s an athlete prepared to put the pedal to the metal whenever he steps into the gym. After his most recent accomplishment, the powerlifter now has the record books backing up his mentality again. <\/p>\n

On Mar. 18, 2023, during the United States Powerlifting Coalition (USPC) Mid-Atlantic Classic & Regional Championship, Herndon captured a 411-kilogram (906.1-pound) raw back squat<\/a><\/strong>. According to Open Powerlifting<\/a><\/em>, the milestone is not only Herndon’s all-time raw competition best, it is the raw all-time World Record for the 125-kilogram (275-pound) weight class<\/strong>. Herndon donned a lifting belt<\/a>, knee sleeves, and wrist wraps during the groundbreaking achievement. At a body weight of 117 kilograms (258 pounds), well below the weight class cap, he is the lightest athlete to squat at least 408.2 kilograms (900 pounds) raw with sleeves. <\/p>\n
