Sophia Ellis (76KG) Sets 245-kg (540.1-lb) Deadlift European and British Records at 2023 IPF World Classic Championships

Sophia Ellis (76KG) Sets 245-kg (540.1-lb) Deadlift European and British Records at 2023 IPF World Classic Championships

The 76-kilogram weight class of the 2023 IPF World Classic Open Powerlifting Championships was one of the most heavily contested in the entire competition. Multiple elite women took part in this weight class, so anyone who managed to outperform others deserves great praise. Notably, Sophia Ellis crushed everyone on the deadlifts, setting new European and British Records with a lift of 245 kilograms (540.1 pounds).
There was no doubt about the validity of Sophia Ellis’ 245-kilogram (540.1-pound) record breaking deadlift since she made sure that every detail of her technique was perfect. Moreover, Sophia believed that there was more left in the tank because of the ease with which the deadlift moved.
“So pleased with how this weight moved and so psyched to know there is more there. 250kg pending ⏳”
Both records were in the possession of Sophia Ellis beforehand as well, but the more notable one, the EPF European Record, was set at the 2022 EPF European Classic Powerlifting Championships. At that competition, Sophia locked out 240.5 kilograms (530.2 pounds), but she has now lifted 4.5 kilograms (9.9 pounds) more.

Sophia Ellis’ Full Performance
Sophia Ellis weighed in at 74.7 kilograms (164.7 pounds) for the 2023 IPF World Championships, making the record-breaking deadlift 3.3x her bodyweight. She also found success in other events, setting new competition PRs in Squat and Total. Moreover, her Total turned out to be a British Record as well.
Sophia Ellis performed exactly as she envisioned, successfully completing all nine of her attempts. She ended up taking fourth place overall, just short of the podium.

Powerlifter Sophia Ellis Scores 235-kg (518.1-lb) Raw Deadlift Two-Rep PR

Sophia Ellis is ready to represent Great Britain in the biggest competitions this year, as her strength keeps ramping up with each passing week. Her deadlift, which was already impressive, has seen significant improvement in the last few days. This is confirmed by her recent 235-kilogram (518.1-pound) deadlift two-rep personal record from training. Ecstatic for setting a new PR, Sophia Ellis decided to share the feat with her Instagram followers.
Sophia Ellis opted for a sumo stance as she has absolutely perfected it through years of practice. In addition, besides a lifting belt and some chalk, Sophia did not use any other equipment, making her new 235-kilogram (518.1-pound) deadlift two rep PR raw as well. Both reps looked very smooth, with the only seemingly difficult moment being the lockout of the second rep.
This is not the first time that Sophia Ellis has attempted to perform two reps with 235 kilograms (518.1 pounds), since she had a failed attempt just a few months ago. However, she has now finally locked it out and stated that she feels stronger than ever.
“Honestly so psyched about this. I attempted this weight for a double going into the British a few months ago and failed it…so to hit it this time around feels so good. Slightly messed up the second rep from the start but it’s a win nevertheless. Feeling the strongest I’ve ever been right now and there’s more to come ?”

Sophia Ellis is preparing for arguably the biggest competition of her career yet. She is planning to compete at the 2023 IPF World Classic Open Powerlifting Championships, which will take place from June 11-18, 2023, in Valletta, Malta. Although she has already competed in two previous editions of this competition, Sophia is now more prepared than ever to battle for the podium.
Sophia Ellis has already won a major title last year at the 2022 EPF European Classic Powerlifting Championships in the 76-kilogram weight class. Moreover, if she still weighs around 76 kilograms (167.6 pounds) then her recent deadlift two-rep PR was 3.1x her bodyweight.
It is clear that Sophia Ellis is just now entering her prime, as she is capable of breaking records and winning major competitions. Over the course of the five years that she has competed professionally, Sophia has taken part in 29 sanctioned competitions and won 14 of them. In addition, she currently holds the u76KG European Raw Deadlift Record of 240.5 kilograms (530.2 pounds) which she set at the same EPF European Championships last year.
