On August 7, 2023, strongman Tom Stoltman<\/a> shared an Instagram video of himself capturing a 500-kilogram (1,102.3-pound) 18-inch deadlift<\/a><\/strong> during a training<\/a> session. Stoltman utilized lifting straps and a conventional stance<\/a> with a traditional grip, had a lifting belt<\/a> adorned, and was in his socks during the monstrous pulling feat. It did not appear to come with much of a struggle as the athlete lifted his bar off a shortened rack to a successful complete lockout. <\/p>\n

Athletes are usually able to lift more from a higher position because it eliminates the original launch point from the floor. Other variations include the Silver Dollar deadlift<\/a>, which mostly only differs in presentation. Estonian competitor Rauno Heinla broke the 18-inch deadlift World Record with a pull of 540 kilograms (1,190.5 pounds)<\/a> at the 2023 Tartu Rammumees ja Rammunaine (TRJR). Stoltman, a former two-time World’s Strongest Man (WSM) champion (2021-2022), is in the final stages of his ongoing preparation for the 2023 Shaw Classic<\/a> (SC). That contest is set to take place on August 19-20, 2023, in Loveland, CO. <\/p>\n
