Jessica Buettner (76KG) Sets IPF Raw Deadlift and Squat World Records at 2022 IPF World Classic Championships Victory

The Women’s 76-kilogram category at the 2022 International Powerlifting Federation (IPF) World Classic Powerlifting Championships in Sun City, South Africa, was arguably one of the most competitive of the entire competition. Four different IPF world records changed by the end of the 76-kilogram contest on June 10, 2022, including new IPF raw squat and IPF raw deadlift world records by the overall champion, Jessica Buettner of Canada. Her squat was 218.5 kilograms (481.7 pounds) and her deadlift was 261.5 kilograms (576.5 pounds).

Additionally, Agata Sitko of Poland finished as the runner-up despite scoring new IPF raw bench press and total world records. In a rare occurrence, both Sitko and Buettner scored totals of 585 kilograms (1,289.7 pounds). However, Buettner’s official bodyweight was 75.25 kilograms versus Sitko’s official bodyweight of 75.65 kilograms. Sitko achieved the 585-kilogram total first and therefore is credited with the total world record, but Buettner’s IPF world record deadlift — the heaviest raw women’s deadlift in IPF history across all weight classes — tied the world record total and earned Buettner the gold.
