Rohan Shah, the Indian strength-lifter, has made history at the 12th World Strength-Lifting & Incline Bench Press Championships held in Thailand in 2025. His performance was a testament to his strength, balance, and mental resilience, capturing the attention of the global strength-lifting community.

Shah's achievements at the championships were impressive, earning him two international medals – a Gold and a Silver. He lifted an impressive 210 kg in the Strength Lifting event and 62.5 kg in the Two-Hand Curl, bringing his total to 272.5 kg.

His dedication to his craft is evident in his twice-daily training sessions, lasting four hours each, with no rest days for an entire year leading up to a competition.

Shah's ultimate goal is to break a world record in his field. He aims to lift 320 kg in the Incline Bench Press at the same championships in 2025. This ambitious target would undoubtedly cement his place as a legend in the strength-lifting world.

India watched Shah's performance closely, with pride and anticipation. His achievements at the championships not only solidified his global ranking but also placed him among the finest lifters on the international stage.

"True champions never stop pushing boundaries," Shah said after his victories. His determination and relentless pursuit of excellence are inspiring to many. As he sets his sights on breaking the world record, the strength-lifting community eagerly awaits his next performance.

Two international medals mark a career-defining achievement for Rohan Shah. However, it seems that this is just the beginning of his journey. With his sights set on a world record title, Shah is poised to make history once again.
