The women's powerlifting record was broken.
Helsinki Johanna Laitinen made a classic bench press Finnish record on Sunday. Laitinen's result in the category over 84 kg was 145 kg. The previous Finnish record was improved by 7.5 kilograms.
The result came in the championships organized in Pornais.
The result is the best ever achieved by a Finnish woman in the classic bench press, says the Finnish Powerlifting Association in its press release. In the classic lifting form, lifting equipment that supports the body may not be used.
Laitinen represents the Team Nordic Thunder club.
The Finnish record was also set by the factory Mira Lahtinen in the women's 76 kg category. The new record is 125.5 kilograms.
