Denise Herber’s Pursuit of History Through Massive Deadlifts
Denise Herber Demonstrates Incredible Strength with 275kg Raw Deadlift PR
Denise Herber, the renowned powerlifter from Germany, has once again impressed with her incredible strength and determination. In a recent Instagram post on March 11, 2023, Herber shared a video clip of herself effortlessly pulling off a 275-kilogram (606.2-pound) raw deadlift during a training session.
According to Herber’s post, this impressive feat was a personal record (PR) for her, showcasing her ongoing progress and dedication to her craft. The deadlift was executed with a sumo stance and mixed grip, and although it’s unclear if she was wearing a lifting belt, it’s possible it was concealed under her shirt, as she had no other equipment on for the achievement.
Herber’s impressive display of strength is a testament to her commitment to pushing herself to new heights and setting new records. It’s no wonder that she has set her sights on pursuing a world record, as she continues to demonstrate her ability to lift staggering amounts of weight with ease.
