The never-ending story of IPF world records shattered at the 2023 IPF World Classic Championships in St. Julian’s, Malta, continues. The Women’s +84-kilogram class was an absolute blockbuster for the record books.
Sonita Muluh of Belgium scored a new IPF world record raw squat of 285.5 kilograms on her third attempt en route to an overall silver-medal finish. Muluh’s new record exceeded the previous record of 281 kilograms scored moments before by overall champion Brittany Schlater. Check out Muluh’s lift below, courtesy of the IPF’s Instagram page:
