Powerlifter Daria Rusanenko (84KG) Sets 276-kg (608.5-lb) Equipped Squat IPF World Record

Muscle Insider

2 years ago

Born in 2001, Daria Rusanenko is a rising star in powerlifting and already one of the strongest women in the equipped division. She has already left her mark in the sport, but being young and hungry, she still keeps improving with every appearance. Most recently, Daria took part in the 2023 EPF European Open, Junior & Sub-Junior Equipped Powerlifting Championships, which was held from May 2-7, in Thisted, Denmark. It is here that Daria managed to set a new 276-kilogram (608.5-pound) equipped squat IPF World Record in the 84-kilogram weight class.

Daria Rusanenko was by far the lightest woman in her weight class with a bodyweight of 77.17 kilograms (169.8 pounds). However, that did not stop her from putting up the heaviest equipped squat the 84-kilogram weight class has ever seen.

Daria Rusanenko only needed two attempts to break the IPF World Record. She first warmed up with a lift of 260 kilograms (573.2 pounds). Already on the second attempt, Daria lifted 276 kilograms (608.5 pounds) and set a new record. In addition, Daria did not even go for her third attempt, which could have been even heavier.

The previous U84KG IPF Equipped Squat World Record was also held by Daria Rusanenko. It stood at 275.5 kilograms (607.4 pounds), which she set at the 2022 IPF World Open Equipped Powerlifting Championships.

However, she still managed to clinch a third-place finish behind Soerlie Heranger Anna and Timmers Ankie.

Daria Rusanenko began competing in powerlifting at just 13-years-old back in 2015. So, despite still being extremely young, she already has almost a decade of experience. In that time, Daria took part in 30 sanctioned competitions and won 17 of them. Her greatest victories were the 2017 & 2019 EPF European Equipped Powerlifting Championships.

Daria Rusanenko wanted to claim her third EPF European Championship title now, but she still walked away with a new World Record. In fact, if only one of the two deadlift attempts she missed was successful, Daria would have walked away with a gold medal. However, there is still a lot more title for her to reclaim this title in the future.
