Can’t believe he totalled more than Russ in the 82.5/83s 🤣 Beat every DOTS/IPF GL points of all federations, even feds with knee wraps and deadlift bars, completely insane. By the far the most best meet performance ever, sorry Taylor
@@alexflores-gb7iz still beat every 82.5/83 lifter out there 😅 Gibbs, Noriega, Delaney etc. No disrespect to any of them, they’re all crazy strong and better than anyone of us will ever be, but insane he did more than any of them by far at 74.2kg
Bro you sound goofy as hell cus Russ set that record years ago like really bruh⁉️ like yeah you really on some real casual fk shit my boi‼️ Everything Austin did was amazing like that part was hella obvious but... Russ Squats is creeping up to the 800's, his Bench is creeping up to the 500's and his Deadlifts is creeping up to the 800's‼️ Lastly, I find it funny that every powerlifter is making a name for themselves once Russ stops competing...🖕😂
I really think we are. Both super heavyweight men and women have been charting the scales and we had Carl Johansson who beat Taylor Atwood at age 22. Can't wait see what this decade does.
I remember perk talking smack about the 82s at worlds saying he could beat them with his openers. Proof is in the pudding. And lemme tell you my boy brought the snack pack to nats
I got to give it to Brandon for lasting as long as he did. He knew how it was going to go after the very first punch, but, he stuck it out as long as he could. And props to Chris for easing him into defeat, instead of just devastating him from the get go.
Insane. I'd really like to see him compete internationally in a federation with high judging standards like ipf. To see how the travel or the lower time weigth in affect him. Could be insane to see such a performance at such a level
Usapl and ipf have the same weighin time and identical standard sans bench press rule, which was introduced in 2022 only by the IPF. He’s also already competed and medaled internationally twice in the IPF. It will go the same way it’s going now - Perkins will dominate with ease.
@@WhiteLightsMediatested doesn’t mean natural. People have been skirting tests for decades in strength sports. Powerlifting feds aren’t going to have the money to do in-depth drug testing on their athletes like Olympic weightlifting does. It doesn’t matter regardless if he is truly natural or not. This is extremely impressive either way.
@@bpt249 Olympic weightlifters have the most juiced out athletes on the planet, let's be honest. I agree though, let's just focus on how impressive this is.
Can someone explain to me. I’m from the UK and relatively new to powerlifting. At a UK national we can’t break world IPF records right? So how does Perkins competing at a USAPL event break a world record or am I missing something here? Remember I’m new to this…insane lifting regardless!
He’s in the USAPL which isn’t part of the IPF. PA or powerlifting America is the official IPF federation of america. He’s setting world records within the USAPL because this is their highest level of competition similar to IPF worlds. Also people often refer to world records even when they aren’t officially being broken to heighten the stakes for that lift.
It is an all time world record squat regardless of the federation, tested or untested. Those are recognized separately than intra-federation records, rather encompassing powerlifting as a whole.
Yeah people throw around "drug tested" like it's not incredibly easy to get away with cheating that system. Anyone who uses illegal narcotics can tell you how easy it is to get away with drugs and testing.
@pandawanwanwan4841 that's part of what makes a genetic freak... a genetic freak lol whether he's natural or not, I'm not sure. Either way, it's not out of the realm of genetic possibilities
@@adrianm-he6heIronic that you'd bring up coping mechanisms. Records like this don't just get shattered because some freak genetics popped up. They get shattered because the drugs have gotten better. This is the case across ALL top level competitive sports.
@@WhiteLightsMedia The former two have way fewer recovery demands and more room for error, nevermind the fact that nothing else carries over to strength training (weight lifting is its own skill)
Thing I like most is that he’s not so bloated like you see a lot of strongmen and some other powerlifters/weightlifters. Nothing against those body types, but I really don’t like this idea that just gaining a bunch of fat is going to make you lift heavier. Look at the body of this absolute weapon, it’s tight and toned, and he’s mogged the whole planet. Respect
Bro every powerlifter below 90 kg has the same physique as him😂. SHWs all have unavoidable fat because it leads to higher muscle mass too. Mass moves mass and that will never change. The total world record regardless of weight class will always be set by super heavyweights

@@Blackbereh then say that and don't bring up injured lifters' numbers lmaoo
most impressive part is seeing a lifter from USAPL hitting depth
the cinematography behind this is amazing, i can feel the intensity through the screen. Well done WL!!
Thanks so much for saying so!!
with the amount of totals and single lift records that are being broken you really get the sense that were heading into a new era of powerlifting!
So true
Crazy what being able to have roids delivered at your door through crypto does to the new generation
@@lilbabygoatedYou understand what drug-tested comp is right? Please use your brain to comprehend
@@quann748I've been drug tested lots of times and never failed and I piss hotter than the sun my man.

Damn, that gave me goosebumps again. What a crazy performance… with room to spare.
Crazyyyy
I've been waiting for this video. Excellent quality, great job as always WLM!
Thank you so much mate! Really means a lot :)

Thank you so much!! Really appreciate it :)
Austin is an unstoppable force
Bro that’s a black hole
@@WhiteLightsMedia 😏
Insane performance. And the edit 🔥
Thanks again mate!
just makes me wonder how far it can be pushed
I thought Atwood's record would stand until he broke it again
Feels like the current 93kg numbers are just about possible at 74kg. What you think?
if austing compite in the ipf, he will be the goat, for now atwood is in the podium 😛
This was so breathtaking. Perkins is a different breed.
He is bro

You on the wrong video?
@@WhiteLightsMedia oops! 😂😂😂
Bro has almsot the same total as some -93kg best professionnal drug tested powerlifter and some people thibk that he is rly natty ☠️☠️
Do they know when is the test?
These videos are so good
Thank you so much!!
Yo, yo Taylor. imma let you finish but... Austin Perkins had the best powerlifting performance of ALL TIME.
Fitting showcase for an incredible performance. Great job guys!
Great vid and edit bro, deserve more views 🔥
Thank you very much buddy!
600+ dots is just so insane
Truly inspiring
I am inspired
That... is one strong man
Yeah…
it was crazy to see and to shoot. insane edit
Austin is my favorite natural powerlifter as Ronnie was my favourite natural bodybuilder.
Insane
FUCK YEAH - another WLM upload lets goo
Thank you for the support man!!
Halotestin is a hell of a drug.

@@augustinevenero2780 no they don't, USAPL has no bench press rule for elbows
@@Lollonman1wouldn't matter, he meets the standards easily.
@@Lollonman1thats‘s literally what the comment said.
Amazing performance 🙌🏾💯🔥
Yeah!!
What a freak, beat Russel's total in a weight class below him. Holy crap.
Yes sir. He’s nuts?!
Man’s Miles Morales irl, man got the proportional strength of a spider 😂💪
🤣🤣
so he wears wrist wraps for squat but not for bench? what a chad
Strong wrists eh
Perkins vs Orhii at 82.5kg is the battle we need to see ⚔
Hopefully we’ll see it! Probs more Austin at 74kg to go
USAPL means you already know he's juiced to the gills😂
They do loads of testing! He got tested straight after this

might be the greatest ever
Certainly in contention
Moving towards a 2K total at 75KG WTF WOW
Insaaaan
He poses a real threat to Russ throne..
Drug tested means jack shit these days

USAPL does a lot of testing. It’s not easy to get around. Have a google :)
Song??
So he's the strongest man to ever live via size to weight ratio?
Maybe some very light lifters have a better ratio, but according to I think every formula (Wilks, Dots, etc) this is the best!
@@WhiteLightsMediajohn haack
He changed singlets
He did. Which one did you prefer?
🔥👏🙌
why he didn't compete in IPF?
This was his last usapl comp. He competed in PA nats this year and is going to IPF worlds in a few weeks.
every time i see proffesionals doing reverse grip in deadlift with heavy loads i get really nervous
Usually it’s completely fine!
Wahnsinn!
It's him
Who?
Yeah, well, Lance Armstrong was the most tested athlete of all time, and he never failed a test, while doping the entire time. So...
5:16 337.5kgs is not 826lbs
Our bad! 😅 Kilos is what the bar’s loaded in anyways hey?
Should Be 337.5KG / 744LBS
No worries! Absolutely love what you all are doing!@@WhiteLightsMedia
Russell will get it back in no time
Probably so!
at that bodyweight and drug tested.
Which fed allows drugs?

Does your mother squat that?
Sumo deadlift... doesn't count! Haha jk jk. That's some unreal strength! Even crazier is he had more on the squat and dead...
