On August 8, 2023, powerlifter Jalen Faulk<\/a> shared on his Instagram profile that features the athlete successfully capturing a 355.1-kilogram (783-pound) raw deadlift<\/a><\/strong> during a training session. According to the 19-year-old Faulk’s caption, the pull is an unofficial 18-19 Teen record in the 100-kilogram weight class<\/strong>. Per the records database on Open Powerlifting<\/em>, the official mark still belongs to Josiah Richardson, who deadlifted 339.9 kilograms (749.5 pounds) at the 2022 United States Powerlifting Association (USPA) Drug Tested Wisconsin State Championships. <\/p>\n

Faulk accomplished his training pull while wearing just a lifting belt<\/a> in terms of assistive equipment. He deadlifted from a sumo stance<\/a> while utilizing a hook grip to elevate his loaded barbell<\/a> off the floor. Per Faulk’s caption, his pulling technique could’ve apparently used some work, implying he might have left some weight and strength on the table for a future date. The athlete wrote that he weighed 100 kilograms (220.4 pounds) at the time of the lift, meaning Faulk deadlifted approximately 3.5 times his body weight<\/strong>. <\/p>\n
