The 2025 Sheffield Powerlifting Championships was a mayhem of International Powerlifting Federation (IPF) World Records. A staggering 23 records were achieved across the 24-athlete field.
Three of those 23 records were achieved by champion Agata Sitko of Poland, who successfully defended her Sheffield title by scoring new IPF world records in the bench press, deadlift, and total.
Sitko, who holds records in three division weight categories, competed at 68.41 kilograms. At Sheffield, athletes were ranked by the percentage of the world record they achieved in their respective weight classes.
Sitko set the IPF world record for the Women’s 69KG class at 600 kilograms in the 2024 Sheffield competition. In 2025, she locked out a 628-kilogram total—an increase of 4.67%.
