Description

The IWF has finally released the new world standards — benchmark numbers that serve as the minimums required to set world records in the updated weight categories. To claim a world record now, an athlete must lift more than these standards.

In this episode, we break down each of the new world standards, explore how tough they really are, and consider which weightlifters might be the first to surpass them.
