Currently, a video of a nine-year-old girl doing weightlifting is going viral on social media. You will be amazed at how many kilos the girl is lifting.
Weightlifting is a form of sport. In the video shared by Arshia Goswami, we can see that the nine-year-old has deadlifted 75kg with such ease that it would put many older people to shame. The deadlift is a strength exercise in which a weighted barbell is elevated off the ground from a stabilised, bent-over position with knees free to bend.
Arshia Goswami is India’s youngest deadlifter, and her account shows that she holds world records and Asia records at such a young age.
In this viral video on social media, we first see Arshia Goswami standing behind a 75 kg weight. Then, momentarily taking a deep breath, lift the weight in front with full force and hold it for a few seconds. Then, finally, give up. We can hear Arshia Goswami’s trainer shouting and encouraging her while lifting weights.
This viral video is titled “No song needed! India’s Youngest and Most Powerful Girl” is captioned. Let’s see how netizens are reacting to this video.
“Wow. Took me years to even attempt that weight in my teens. Mad respect.”
“That’s incredible technique for that age. Most people don’t have that kind of technique until years in the game”, wrote another.
“Easily 25 kgs more than my PR. And I’m 42. This is unbelievably impressive!”, said a third.
“Wow wow wow.. We have a new superstar to win golds for India in the making”, commented a fourth.
“But why wouldn’t she have trouble lifting such heavy weights at such a young age,” asks a fifth.
