Powerlifter Marisa Inda (-52kg) is always up to something in the gym, whether it’s pushing herself to new personal lifting records, showing off some inventive workout flows, or highlighting her impressive pull-up work. Here, we’re highlighting a phenomenal workout she recently posted: a massive deadlift double of 182.5kg/402lb for a personal record.
Back in May, we covered her lifetime deadlift PR of 419 lbs, so we had a feeling this was going to shake out to be a big year for Inda. Always the perfectionist, she noted that her most recent deadlift double wasn’t her prettiest of pulls, but it moved well considering.

It wasn’t pretty but it’s a PR. 182.5kg/402lbs for a double.
One thing we’ve always admired about Inda is her honesty about the ups and downs of being a powerlifter. Earlier this year when she hit her lifetime PR she posted about her health battle since the 2017 Worlds.
She wrote on her Instagram post:
“Since 2017 Worlds I’ve been dealing with sciatica and haven’t PR’d dead’s at a meet since then. I’ve had to take steps back in training, check my ego and do meets where I did just enough to win.”
Now, she’s back to crushing PRs.

She’s pretty active with sharing her workouts on Instagram and recently showed off a solid bench press session that included 198 lbs for three reps. About three weeks ago she also shared another deadlift session which involved moving 375lbs/170kg for a five-rep PR.

We’re excited to see when Inda takes the platform next, but in the meantime we’re absolutely here for all the big time training PRs she’s been serving us.
