Fitness influencer Lean Beef Patty recently triumphed in her debut competitive powerlifting competition. On March 24, 2024, Lean Beef Patty competed as a guest within the raw 60-kilogram class on the United States Powerlifting Association (USPA) To Infinite and Beyond meet* in Costa Mesa, CA.
Lean Beef Patty — listed as Patricia Patty on the official scorecards — rigorously prepared for the meet for several months. However, recent travels coupled with a bout of illness led to an unexpected weight reduction of 11 kilos in only two weeks. She weighed in officially at 58.9 kilograms. She detailed her experience on her YouTube channel, which boasts over two million subscribers, which may be seen below:
The 27-year-old Lean Beef Patty went eight for nine in attempts, missing only her final squat attempt.
Lean Beef Patty thoroughly warmed up light lifts with 20-kilogram weight plates to arrange for squats. Her initial squat attempt of 115 kilograms (253.5 kilos) appeared to maneuver easily, but she admitted to just about missing the squat resulting from unfamiliarity with the timing of the judges’ commands.
A surprise for Lean Beef Patty was the thickness of the squat bar utilized in competition being different from a regular Olympic barbell typically utilized in gyms.
“The bar is a unique form of bar. I didn’t know they’d a bajillion different bars,” says Lean Beef Patty. “This is sort of a squat bar, so it’s fatter and 55 kilos. So if you happen to got itty bitty baby hands and you may’t grip it, it’ll be difficult. But luckily, I got big meat paws, so I can grip it pretty easily.”
In her second squat attempt, Lean Beef Patty lifted 120 kilograms (264.5 kilos) while wearing a lifting belt, surpassing her first attempt by five kilograms. Lean Beef Patty received one red light, indicating a minor infraction for the bar’s slight elevation on one side. However, two of three judges ruling the second attempt clean meant it was a successful lift.
Lean Beef Patty missed her third attempt of 127.5 kilograms (281 kilos) resulting from insufficient depth. She expressed navigating a powerlifting meet can perplex newcomers.
Lean Beef Patty sought guidance on judging commands before her first bench press attempt of 70 kilograms (154.3 kilos). She lifted the load from the rack, patiently waited for the beginning command, lowered the bar to her chest, and pushed the bar successfully to lockout upon receiving the press command.
In her second bench press attempt, Lean Beef Patty successfully his 75 kilograms (165.3 kilos). Engaging briefly with a judge on form, she was confident she could rating 80 kilograms on her final attempt.
Lean Beef Patty appreciated the ample rest periods between lifts and was comfortable to perform only a single rep per attempt. During her third bench press attempt of 80 kilograms (176.3 kilos), Lean Beef Patty was offered a redo after a premature judging call. She took advantage of the second probability and scored it.
Before attempting the deadlift, Lean Beef Patty mentioned feeling fatigued, noting it was 2:30 p.m. and he or she had been there since 9:30 a.m. She locked out 125 kilograms (275.5 kilos) in her first attempt. She increased to 132.5 kilograms (292.1 kilos) on her second attempt, a big 16.6-pound jump, but was successful. Her successful third attempt of 142.5 kilograms (314.1 kilos) was a latest personal best.
