Video shows a bearded Avi Silverberg calmly approach the bench in men's clothing and unofficially break the women's record
Silverberg was protesting rules by the Canadian Powerlifting Union which allow anybody who identifies as a woman to compete in the female category
Silverberg was at the Heroes Classic Powerlifting Meet in Lethbridge in Alberta
********************************************************************
This is the moment a male coach claims to be a woman and smashes the female bench press record at a powerlifting competition in Canada.
Bearded Avi Silverberg is shown calmly approaching the bench in men's clothing as part of a protest against gender self-identification policies in sport.
Silverberg then unofficially breaks the female bench press record for the 84+ kilograms women's category, which was a 270lbs press - officially set by a trans lifter.
The move, which took place Saturday at the Heroes Classic tournament in Lethbridge, Alberta, was apparently designed to protest rules outlined by the Canadian Powerlifting Union.
Silverberg has yet to comment on his decision to enter the contest and subsequent victory.
The Canadian rules allow anybody who self-identifies as a woman to compete in the female category, sparking concerns trans women who've gone through male puberty may have a considerable physical advantage over biological female rivals.
The CPU released its 'trans inclusion policy' in February which was based on guidance from the Canadian Center for Ethics in Sport.

Well, that took some balls.
Literally.
Mega kudos to sticking it to them.
Absolutely.
As well, shameful that it was a canadian first.
LOL! She is certainly brave. Beautiful - I will have to circle back around to that.
Ava is in good form...
i love her new chin hair choice.
You must fight the insanity with ridicule. When a male is allowed to compete against females on a team, then have your entire male team declare themselves to be female and show them how stupid it is.
Liberalism is a mindless cult. They embrace and espouse anything, regardless how preposterous, that comes out of the cult.
Research the mindset of cultists and you'll see how they all think.
Needs to get a half-dozen or so to do it in the same event.
Was Avi menstrating during the lift?
Avi looks like his period backed up.
"Sauce for the goose is sauce for the gander."
Stunning and brave.
Should have it done in cornrows...................
Good show Avi! About time someone showed where this insanity is headed.
I am too old now, but if I was younger, I would do the same. Just declare I feel female today and compete with women.
Avi Silverberg wins by lifting the largest amount of Ridicule of Trannys and HomoNazis over his head for the World to see!
I believe you have presented an important truism there.
c’mon man. that would be cultural misappropriations, and Ava ain’t into that. just let her powerlift her way into the women’s record books. i hope she doesn’t drop a testical.
It’s not like Alinsky invented the rules, they’ve been used long before he wrote the book.
You are correct, Alinsky was a Scribe, not an Author.
Six foot four and full of muscle?
Where have I heard that before? Does he make vegemite sandwiches? :)
