Knocking on the door of an all-time powerlifting world record is a rare feat. Zahir Khudayarov‘s hand has only gotten heavier and heavier, slamming on the door of the all-time world record raw squat with wraps in the 140KG class.





Khudayarov shared a video on his Instagram page on March 17, 2024, wherein he locked out a 475-kilogram squat double in wraps. According to Open Powerlifting, had one of those reps been performed in a sanctioned competition, it would have been the third-heaviest squat ever. Check out Khudayarov’s training below:

When you have a goal we are very close.

Khudayarov’s caption on his Instagram post suggests that his goal for the squat is to lock out 500 kilograms. If he were to accomplish that feat, he would be the only athlete to ever do so below the superheavyweight class. Athletes who competed at +140KG who have achieved the 500-kilogram raw w/wraps squat milestone include Mojtaba Maleki, Vladislav Alhazov, and all-time world record holder Dan Bell.





Khudayarov holds that all-time world record raw squat in wraps in the 125KG class at 480 kilograms, achieved at the 2017 FPO WABDL World Cup. That is the same weight as the all-time world record in the 140KG class, scored by James Searcy at the 2018 RPS Live Large Big Spring Showdown.





Khudayarov also holds the all-time world record raw total in the 125KG class of 1,112.5 kilograms from the 2015 FPO Paimio Power Weekend. However, Khudayarov’s three most recent meets have been in the 140KG class, though he has not competed since August 2019. He has bounced between competing at 125KG and 140KG since 2013.






Time and patience will tell everything.

Khudayarov has competed in 22 sanctioned meets throughout his multi-decade-long powerlifting career. Of those 22, Khudayarov won 17 for a 77.3 percent win rate.
