The 2023 International Powerlifting Federation (IPF) World Bench Press Championships saw a number of hallowed records fall<\/a>. One of them now belongs to 50-year-old Dutch powerlifter lelja Strik, who helped rewrite the record books during the upper body, single-lift strength contest that took place on May 20-28, 2023, in Sun City, South Africa. <\/p>\n

By the competition’s end, Strik recorded a 132.5-kilogram (292.1-pound) raw <\/strong>bench press<\/strong><\/a> on her best attempt. <\/strong>The figure is a raw Masters 2 (ages 50 to 59) World Record<\/strong> in Strik’s 84-kilogram division, where the athlete came in first place thanks to her top lift. Strik utilized wrist wraps during her record milestone but otherwise completed the bench press completely raw. <\/p>\n
