That said \u2014 after Cayco finished in third place at the 2022 International Powerlifting Federation (IPF) World Championships \u2014 the athlete seems to be extra motivated. It shows with a tear of significant progress on his staple lifts over the last few months.<\/p>\n<p>For example, in mid-August 2022, Cayco logged a massive 260-kilogram (573-pound) <a href=\"https:\/\/breakingmuscle.com\/jonathan-cayco-squat-573-pounds-five-reps\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-lasso-id=\"148476\">raw back squat five-rep PR<\/a>.
