Powerlifter Jade Jacob Breaks Two Unofficial Deadlift & Total IPF World Records In Training

1 year ago

One of the biggest competitions in powerlifting is less than ten days away, as the 2023 IPF World Classic Open Powerlifting Championships will take place in Valletta, Malta, from June 11-18. Thus, the majority of World’s greatest powerlifters are almost at the peak of their physical shape. One of the participants in the aforementioned competition who has undoubtedly prepared exceptionally well is Jade Jacob. The French powerlifter fell just short of the IPF Worlds title in 2022, but she is now looking to amend herself with a win this year. Jade displayed her ambition by unofficially breaking the Deadlift and Total IPF World Records in her recent training session. Jade also shared all of her lifts from the workout on Instagram.

Jade Jacob started off her training session with a 180-kilogram (396.8-pound) squat, which is exactly the same weight as her competition PR. She then moved onto the bench press where she landed a 100-kilogram (220.5-pound) bench press. Like the squat, Jade’s bench press was also equal to her competition PR.

The real action started during the deadlift event when Jade Jacob managed to lock out 235 kilograms (518.1 pounds). This marked the first out of two Unofficial IPF World Records, as the current one was set by Jade herself at the 2023 IPF Sheffield Powerlifting Championships. This competition took place just a few months ago and Jade set the record by deadlifting 231 kilograms (509.3 pounds).

By accumulating all three events, Jade Jacob’s Total came out to 515 kilograms (1,135.4 pounds). This is unofficially heavier than the current IPF World Record of 503.5 kilograms (1,110 pounds). The current record was also set by Jade at the same competition where she set the Deadlift World Record.

Jade Jacob has barely stepped into her 20s, so it is evident that she is still extremely young. However, she has already taken part in 18 sanctioned competitions and won nine of them. These include French National Championships and IPF Junior World Championships. Moreover, she holds multiple World Records and is now aiming to further improve them.

Jade Jacob usually competes in the 57-kilogram weight class and will look to do the same at the 2023 IPF Worlds. In addition, she hopes to win gold since only 0.5 kilograms (1.1 pounds) separated her from the winner in 2022. However, she is now outperforming the World Record. So, it is safe to say that she is the biggest favorite for the 2023 IPF World Classic Open World Championships.
