Austin Perkins | 74kg IPF Worlds 2024

[@mateogutierrez5795]

Bro could be a top 3 in the 83kg class as a 74kg lifter. Insane. Sheffield is next.

[@StevenStamkos91]

He could win the 83s if weighed 74 and not 72 like he did for this comp

[@Marly88]

Is it just me or was this like 15 kg lower then his record total?

[@zennar1537]

@@Marly88 Believe it's a strategic choice. He is gonna save his maximum strength for Sheffield, where the winner is decided on relative increase of the WR in that class. He owns the 74 class, so no reason to set the bar higher than he did.

[@jukkapimia]

@@StevenStamkos91 He could've won 83s at 72 if he didn't sandbag all 3 lifts to keep the WR low for Sheffield. He had well over 845 in him that day.

[@mauricegoossen4126]

World games will be 74’s and 83’s in the same weightclass so we will see the battle of austin against the 83’s

[@RoyBrouwer-rw5fn]

Casually opening with Russel’s third attempt bench💀

[@upholstery1995]

Fr 😂😂😂😂

[@upholstery1995]

Fr 😂😂😂 weighing 20 kg lighter too 😭🤯

[@SockAAAAA]

Austin’s final bench attempt is a typo, it’s 200kg/440.9lbs not 200kg/485lbs. No judgment tho, amazing video, keep it up!!

[@saetjs]

If he took everything to Rpe 9-10, he could have won in the 83s. 9 kilos off from Jurins who totaled 845 today. Crazy

[@JosoLifts]

absolutely nuts

[@Morris.Andrew]

His squat was definitely rpe 10, but he had lbs left in him for bench and deadlift. Enough to at least push over 845kg to beat jurin, but Jurins also still had more in his tank. The extra weight would definitely allow austin to increase his strength, so I agree he'd win.

[@saetjs]

@@Morris.Andrew if park weighed closer to like 73.9 he would have probably been a lil stronger, he weighed in pretty light I think like 72.75 or somethin

[@Morris.Andrew]

@@saetjsspeaking on experience that weighing 1.25kg less or more isn't enough to really do anything for your strength. So I'm gonna just have to disagree that he could have been stronger, not saying he wouldn't, but it's highly unlikely since that's only pushing a 3lb weigh in difference which isn't a lot.

[@jelania]

@@Morris.Andrew 3lbs is a lot man

[@sunnytian4765]

Insane how his best total in a comp ever is more than the 83kg world champ this yesr

[@JosoLifts]

bro EASILY could've slapped on 15 more pounds on his squat. IS ANYONE even CLOSE at 74kg to his total? He's absolutely on another level.

[@Shvabicu]

He already squatted 700 pounds at nationals

[@JosoLifts]

@@Shvabicu I know LOL. I'm saying for this instance internationally he hasn't; the announcers even said it too.

[@Blackbereh]

Unbelievable how fast you get these up 😅

[@WilliamButcher4455]

Couldn't have put it better myself gamer

[@JoeByrne-jq6qk]

it's crazy how he posts a total that would still be insane in the 83kg class, I wonder if he will bulk up and compete in a higher weight class!

[@feelzgoodmane6517]

Maybe one day, but I feel he hasn't reached his peak yet at this weight.

[@joederbyshire_]

Perk doing what perk does best!

[@ownthispwn]

Opening the meet with a WR is vicious

[@josephrodriguez8661]

Wowwww you guys make such good media!!! So impressive.

[@RafalPaprocki]

Beautiful everything, the performance & interview & approach, Austin Perkins is the King for now

[@ronaldjewell1545]

The greatest powerlifter in history.!!! Over 11 times his body weight in total.

[@fryn.723]

It is Austin Perkins who is the PFP lifter in the world and the history...amazing...

[@iyedh2m367]

Where's the 66's video can't wait 👀🔥

[@mahryusse6769]

C’est terrifiant de voir un mec aussi fort

[@fr0sbitEDIT]

I cant believe this is real

[@kevinflores1717]

EGOmaniac! I swear lol.

[@SkMrFusion123]

Wish you had done normal speed for the lifts themselves. Other than that I really like the videos you put out

[@WhiteLightsMedia]

No change in speed for any lifting footage 😄

[@TheFelipe10848]

Austin is just an explosive monster lol

[@kainguyen3786]

Perfect song choice.

[@gaak_man_]

💣👍🏽👏🏾

[@testmicro---]

we witnessed for sure the performance of 2024

[@Mr1goldenmine]

i love the coach yelling "championship technique", wtf that even mean

[@JoeStanek]

We knew if Austin got even 1 red that a lift could potentially be taken from him. So we made sure that wouldn’t happen

[@cajunrage5737]

Can anyone explain why does he wear his weight belt so high up?

[@squash1514]

can you make a ¨kjell vs austin video?

[@SeboxFX]

last bench should have been red lighted we can see his butt rising of the bench at kzbin.info/www/bejne/a4nJnqZpr62gY6M 2min42

[@ShinoxSturmreiterDesTode]

want to see his anti doping control!

[@ownthispwn]

4th quarter perk

what deadlift shoes are those

Avancus

@@kainguyen3786 thanks!

[@feelzgoodmane6517]

*Chooses opener on squats* ... *is a wr* ... barely even human.

[@kynoch7056]

his third bench was 441 not 485

[@user-rj1lw8wi9r]

Clearly P4P

[@frenchgamer9209]

easy

[@baborikinm]

C'mon, you should drug test him better.

[@yoboyj7678]

Great athlete but his on steroids that's for sure

[@saetjs]

Respectfully if he was, the work he has put in shows his results. Not everyone using roids becomes this strong, especially at this body weight.

[@user-lp9xn4ix7l]

Mans has the longest powerlifting resume. Russ looks like he's on steroids, but barely stronger while being 9kg heavier.

[@paulettefendersonhebert5183]

Go AUSTIN!

[@almost5198]

aren't these competitions strict about steroid use? :0 i thought it was all natural since its a world championship or am i being too naive lul

[@saetjs]

@@almost5198 they are very strict about it. They get tested often all the time even in the offseason(a long training time before a competition), whether it’s true or not we aren’t sure 100%, people can always get away with stuff. Does that matter? If you are really into then yes. But to be honest no one lifts like they do, whether they are on gear or not. These people are the top 0.01%. Also sorry for yapping hella long I’m just passionate about powerlifting💀
