210 kg deadlift @ 85,5 kg BW, 37 yo
After three years away from competing, I finally returned to the platform.
I've been vegan for 4.5 years and have been training for strength for about 5 years.
I competed at 85.5 kg (188.5 lb) bodyweight and pulled 210 kg (463 lb) in the deadlift, setting a new meet PR.
It might not be a huge number in the powerlifting world, but after an injury, getting older (I'm almost 37), and losing bodyweight over the last few years, this lift means a lot to me.
Just wanted to share this with the community. 🌱💚
