On May 18, 2022, Panton (67.5KG) shared footage of herself deadlifting 235 kilograms (518 pounds) during a training session. Even if it’s unofficial because it occurred outside of a sanctioned competition, Panton’s pull is two kilograms (4.4 pounds) heavier than the current USA Powerlifting (USAPL) Junior Record of 233 kilograms (513.6 pounds). Notably, Panton also holds that mark when she accomplished the pull at the 2022 USAPL Arnold Pioneer Belt Pro Deadlift.
Panton completed this deadlift using a sumo stance — which is legal in powerlifting — and wore just a lifting belt.

What’s Next
After her unofficial record pull, Panton will compete at the 2022 USAPL Mega Nationals. Those will take place on June 7-12, 2022, in Las Vegas, NV. With another meet on the horizon, Panton has populated her Instagram feed with many different clips of her training her squat, bench press, and deadlift as she ramps up her preparation.
Provided Panton can transfer over her recent deadlift prowess to the competition, she may break the 67.5-kilogram USAPL Juniors Record in Nevada again.
