WKO Powerlifting Records

WKO has 140 competition entries on file from 119 lifters registered in the state. Records are scoped by the lifter's state of residence (per their federation registration), not by meet location, matching how USAPL, Powerlifting America, and USPA define state records.

The heaviest total on file here is Hayden Blunt's 1,015 kg (2,237.5 lb) at TA Slay in 2026. GPC sanctions the most competitions here, accounting for 91% of all entries on file. Competition activity peaked in 2023, the busiest year on record with 96 entries.

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.
