Records are computed from the OpenPowerlifting public-domain dataset and represent the highest qualifying lift on file for each (federation, sex, equipment, weight class, age class, tested) combination. State records are scoped by the lifter's registered state of residence (matching USAPL/PA/USPA rules), not by meet location; coverage depends on the federation — USAPL and USPA report lifter state for 87–97% of entries, while some smaller feds report it rarely. Records may differ from a federation's official record book. Read more about how these records are computed.
