At this point, Russel Orhii has little to prove. As an 83-kilogram powerlifter, he’s a two-time International Powerlifting Federation (IPF) World Champion (2019, 2021). He holds the raw IPF World Record back squat<\/a> (320.5 kilograms\/706.6 pounds), also in the 83-kilogram weight class. <\/p>\n

Domestically, in the 82.5-kilogram division, Orhii owns the USA Powerlifting (USAPL) raw American Records on the squat (320.5 kilograms\/706.6 pounds) and total (838 kilograms\/1,847.5 pounds). He notched his IPF record squat during the 2021 IPF Worlds, while he tallied his American Record at the 2022 USAPL Mega Nationals.<\/p>\n

That isn’t stopping the powerlifting superstar, who doesn’t appear to rest on the laurels of his past accomplishments. On Dec. 4, 2022, Orhii showed how far he’s come with his strength<\/a> when he shared an Instagram clip of himself locking out a 319.8-kilogram (705-pound) back squat for three reps<\/strong>. <\/p>\n

Per the caption of Orhii’s post, the set is a new personal record (PR). Check it out below:<\/p>\n
