Lifter of the Month, December 2024 – Ashley Stearns
by Sanjiv Gupta
December was bustling with All-Round weightlifting, but Ashley Stearns shined by pulling a
318.43 Kg Dinnie Lift and 63.50 Inch Dumbbell Deadlift to be the top USA lifter at the 2024 Old
Time Strongman World Championships. Ashley has been competing out of Buffville since 2023
and quickly joined the Century Club. He currently holds 112 records (across 51 lifts) with 45 of
those being ALL Age class records. Congratulations Ashley.
