He certainly lived up to his reputation with a recent deadlift. Earlier this week, Haack captured a 385-kilogram (848-pound) raw deadlift double during a training session. Not only was the lift over four times Haackâs body weight of 210 pounds, but it might also be a precursor to his upcoming goals. The athlete has stated he plans to compete in the 2023 Kaos Classic competition in July as a strongman. If there were any person that would enjoy a seamless transition between sports, itâd be Haack.
