France has a history of producing many world-class powerlifters. The 2023 FFForce French Junior Nationals, which happened from April 8th to 10th, showcased the sports upcoming talent. As multiple fierce battles raged on, a few unofficial World Records were also observed, adding an extra layer of excitement to the competition. Most notably, Samantha Eugenie, from the 69-kilogram weight class, won the national title and unofficially broke two IPF Junior World Records.


Samantha Eugenie’s first unofficial IPF Junior World Record came in her favorite event, the deadlift. Samantha opened up with a lift of 210 kilograms (462.9 pounds). She then added an additional 9.5 kilograms (20.9 pounds) for her second attempt, but was not able to complete it. However, Samantha locked out 220.5 kilograms (486.1 pounds) on her final attempt, which is 2.5 kilograms (5.5 pounds) over the current IPF Junior World Record. The official record is currently held by Peyraud Clara, who deadlifted 218 kilograms (480.6 pounds) at the 2022 EPF European Classic Powerlifting Championships.


Combining her results from all three lifts, Samantha Eugenie ended up with a total of 515.5 kilograms (1,136.4 pounds). This is easily her greatest Total in her career and is as such also heavier than the IPF Junior World Record. The record currently stands at 510.5 kilograms (1,125.4 pounds), since Peyraud Clara set it at the 2022 EPF European Classic Powerlifting Championships.
