Powerlifter Samantha Eugenie (69kg/20yrs) pulled 230kg on deadlift!

There are countless young athletes around the world who are lifting incredible weights for various disciplines. But it is French triathlete Samantha Eugenie, who only recently turned 20, who excels in the deadlift. During the beginning of September, Samantha managed to set a new IPF Junior Raw Deadlift World Record at the IPF Sub-Junior and Junior Powerlifting World Championships.

Eugenie did just that with a performance of 216 kilograms (476.2 pounds), 6 kilograms (13.2 pounds) more than the previous record held by Bernardi Chiara. She pulled off a deadlift of 210 kilograms (463 pounds) at the 2021 IPF World Classic Powerlifting Championships.

To be honest, I'm not proud of my performance. I did a lower total than my last test and I know why. I'll do my best to make sure it doesn't happen again. I'm not proud of my total, but I am proud of my title. The main goal was to win, and I did.

She assessed her performance after the race.

You can even read on her social media that this competitor currently takes in around 4,000 calories a day, which is an incredible amount for many girls.

Two weeks after the race, I had already gained 3.5 kg. I eat 4000 calories a day without any problems, while I maintained 2000 for 9 months. I try to weigh as little as possible. I admit I'm a little scared of the numbers on the scale. I can see myself changing and it's strange. In the end, I know I will find a balance and it takes time, but I can't wait! And I can't wait for it to show in my performance
