Three World Records …
272 lbs attempt…
In 2022, I set the world record for the most weight lifted by Turkish get-up in one hour. Using an average kettlebell weight of 93 lbs, I completed one rep every 24 seconds for a full hour. Men's Health covered it and shared a short documentary you can watch here:
Three years later, I discovered there was a separate Guinness World Record for the heaviest single rep Turkish get-up. It stood at 200 lbs. I broke it by 55 lbs, lifting 255 lbs, and raising money for veteran mental health and suicide prevention.

That record was broken later that same year. And I came back to defend it. Almost a year to the date, on February 23, 2026, lifting 261.3 lbs. You can watch the lift here:
