The second to last day of the 2023 IPF World Classic Open Powerlifting Championships took place on June 17th in Valletta, Malta. As the action progressed, it was eventually capped by a massive deadlift from a British representative, Inderraj Singh Dhillon. Also known as the “British Warrior”, Inderraj took part in the 120-kilogram weight class and set a new IPF World Record Raw Deadlift of 386 kilograms (851 pounds).
Inderraj Singh Dhillon competed in the raw division, so he was only able to use a lifting belt and some chalk to aid him in the lift. After properly preparing for his attempt, Inderraj approached the barbell and placed his feet in a conventional stance. He then utilized a mixed grip to grab the bar loaded with 386 kilograms (851 pounds) and started pulling. The weight moved easily off the ground, but Inderraj almost got stuck after passing the knees. However, after some shaking and grinding it out, Inderraj locked out the humongous weight.
Inderraj Singh Dhillon broke the previous U120KG IPF World Record Deadlift by 0.5 kilograms (1.1 pounds). The previous record was held by Bryce Krawczyk, who lifted 385.5 kilograms (849.9 pounds) in Halmstad at the 2021 IPF World Classic Powerlifting Championships.

Inderraj Singh Dhillon’s 386-kilogram (851-pound) deadlift was important for more reasons than just being a World Record. It was also the key lift that moved Inderraj up to the third place position in his weight class and secured him a bronze medal in the biggest competition in the world.
The winner of the 120-kilogram weight class was Inderraj’s fellow countryman, Tony Cliff. So, Great Britain had some amazing representatives at the 2023 IPF World Classic Open Powerlifting Championships.
