Nine-year-old Lucy, who deadlifted 185 pounds, trains five times a week and wrestles.

Nine-year-old Lucy Milgrim isn't like other girls her age. Instead of staring at her phone, she lifts weights heavier than her body weight, wrestles professionally, and trains five times a week, according to Odditycentral.

She has set three U.S. powerlifting records and recently shocked everyone by deadlifting 185 pounds in front of a cheering crowd, despite weighing only 60 pounds.

Lucy's father, Brett Milgrim, told People magazine that his daughter was strong and different from others from childhood. He and his wife were both athletes, and Lucy began to emulate them.

Lucy Milgrim's achievements are impressive given her young age and light weight. However, they have sparked controversy on social media due to concerns about her health after a video of her lifting three times her body weight.
