A Texas native, Olivares began his career as a teenager with the Texas High School Powerlifting Association (THSPA) in 2013. After getting some experience and meets under his belt, he managed to win the 2014 THSPA Mustang Invitational \u2014 his first-ever victory.<\/p>\n<p>From there, it&#8217;s been mostly smooth sailing for the stellar young powerlifter.<\/p>\n<p>Of late, Olivares has won six straight competitions and hasn&#8217;t lost an event since 2015. To date, his peak career achievement might be a first-place finish in the 2021 International Powerlifting Federation (IPF) World Classic Powerlifting Championships while competing in the 120-kilogram-plus weight class. That has also been Olivares&#8217; competition weight during his ongoing winning streak.<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s a rundown of some of the more notable results from Olivares&#8217; ongoing career:<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"jesus-olivares-notable-career-results\">Jesus Olivares Notable Career Results<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>2019 USA Powerlifting (USAPL) Winter Iron Open <\/strong>\u2014 1st place<\/li>\n<li><strong>2020 USAPL Capital City Classic <\/strong>\u2014 1st place<\/li>\n<li><strong>2020 USAPL Collegiate Cup and Texas Open <\/strong>\u2014 1st place<\/li>\n<li><strong>2021 USAPL Raw Nationals <\/strong>\u2014 1st place<\/li>\n<li><strong>2021 IPF World Classic Powerlifting Championships <\/strong>\u2014 1st place<\/li>\n<li><strong>2022 AMP Classic Open Nationals <\/strong>\u2014 1st place<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Olivares recently notched an <a href=\"https:\/\/breakingmuscle.com\/powerlifter-prescillia-bavoil-wins-2022-french-nationals\/\" data-lasso-id=\"103641\">unofficial world record<\/a> for the 120-kilogram-plus weight class, among other feats. During the 2022 AMP Classic Open Nationals, the powerlifter pulled a 402.5-kilogram <a href=\"https:\/\/breakingmuscle.com\/deadlift\/\" data-lasso-id=\"103642\">deadlift<\/a> (887.3-pound) \u2014 which would&#8217;ve been the world record if achieved at an international competition. Ray Williams still holds the official all-time IPF mark with a 398.5-kilogram pull (878.5-pound) during the 2018 IPF World Classic Powerlifting Championships.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, Olivares also scored a 1,110-kilogram total (2,447.1-pound) during the meet. It is the second-heaviest raw total for the 120-kilogram-plus weight class in the history of IPF powerlifting.
