Hafthor Bjornsson has maintained an impressive midsection at 420 pounds!
Strongman Hafthor Bjornsson is fully back into competition shape but that does not mean he has sacrificed conditioning. On Sunday, Thor shared a physique update where he showed off his impressive midsection at 418 pounds.
Hafthor Bjornsson, who currently holds the all-time deadlift world record at 501 kilograms (1,104.5 pounds), has not slowed down since his return to competitive strength sports. His latest feat, which included pulling 430 kilograms not once but twice, proves that he’s far from done with the deadlift game. This latest PR comes as he prepares to compete in the 2024 Rogue Invitational, where he aims to silence any remaining doubters and possibly make a run at his own world record.
Since coming back from his injury, Bjornsson has participated in several elite Strongman competitions, consistently dominating the deadlift events. His latest two-rep deadlift PR of 430 kilograms is a testament to his ongoing progression. Despite having achieved what many consider the pinnacle of deadlifting with his 501-kilogram record, Bjornsson appears more determined than ever to push his limits even further.
The Rogue Invitational will be his next venture on stage and Bjornsson has impressed with his physique.
