Jamal Browner Crushes 390kg Deadlift For A Double During Training Session
Jamal Browner continues to train for his next event in 2022.
Jamal Browner is no stranger to massive lifts in the gym, especially deadlifts. He has been one of the top competitors in the 110kg division in the world and continues to show why in training sessions. Browner is preparing to compete at the Hybrid Showdown 4 on Jan. 15-16 and looks to be in competition shape.
Browner has always shared his latest feats on social media and he has done so once again. On Sunday, the powerlifter took to Instagram to show off a video of him crushing 390kg (859.8lb) paused deadlifts for a double. Browner followed this up with five reps of a 30kg (837.7lb) deadlift wearing straps and a lifting belt.

Followed by ascending sets of 5.
Top set: 380kg (837.7lbs) x5
This joins a 345kg (760.5lb) squat that Jamal Browner recently shared on Instagram as well. The Hybrid Showdown 4 is set to take place in Miami in the middle of January. It seems as though Browner is preparing to make quite an impact in his first show in 2022.
This is a chance for Browner to set some more personal records. As of now, his current competition bests sit at 365kg (804.5lb) squat, 225kg (496lb) bench press, and 440.5kg (903.8lb) deadlift. His all-time best total in competition is 1,000 kg (2,204.6lb).
Browner displays a sumo stance when deadlifting. This could cause some debate if he were ever to challenge the deadlift world record. While he still has some ways to go in competition, Browner is putting up deadlifts that are comparable to strongmen who are significantly heavier than he is.
The current deadlift world record is half by Hafthor Bjornsson, when he completed a 501kg (1,104lb) deadlift in 2020. Bjornsson broke the previous world record by a single kilogram. Eddie Hall became the first person to deadlift 500kg (1,102lb) at the beginning of 2020. Since then, Ivan Makarov has attempted a 502kg (1,106.7lb) deadlift but has failed. This means Hall and Bjornsson remain the only two to ever eclipse the 500kg number.
Jamal Browner still has some work to do but it is not crazy to think that he might get there one day. For now, Browner has his eye on putting up a huge performance during the Hybrid Showdown 4 and taking home some prize money.
