Quick Glance: Bearded man breaks women's lifting record
  • A bearded pro powerlifter entered a women's competition in Canada and broke a record held by a transgender lifter who was watching on.

  • According to the NY Post, Avi Silverberg, the head coach for Team Canada Powerlifting for more than 10 years, entered last weekend's Heroes Classic tournament in Lethbridge, Alberta, after identifying as a female.

  • Video shared by athlete activist group the Independent Council on Women's Sports (ICONS) shows him walking up to the platform still fully bearded and wearing a regular men's singlet.

  • He then casually bench-pressed nearly 167kg - beating the current Alberta women's record by almost 45kg.
