What is the world record in weightlifting for the squat?

Answer

The record with unlimited equipment is 1250 lbs (566.9 kg) held by Vlad Alhazov.

The IPF record (singly ply squat suit only) is 457.5kg (1008 lbs), held by Shane Hamman (USA).

The heaviest unequipped squat record (no squat suit) is 430kg (948 lbs), held by Marc Henry (UK).

Note: The 430 kg raw lift is unknown...... as the lift is not viewed on any website, therefore uncertain.

Note 2: The IPF are the only federation that are accurate on depth. Mark henry's lift and Alazov's lifts may be inaccurate.
