Don’t mess with this kid! Nine-year-old Lucy Milgrim of Long Island, N.Y., recently became an internet sensation when a video was posted of her deadlifting 180 pounds at an all-ages sports competition in Ohio.

“It was a cool thing to do, but in terms of when she’s going to attempt a big number like that again, not for a long time,” her proud dad, Brett, said, per USA Today, adding that “Lucy’s always been this really naturally strong kid.”

The pint-sized powerlifter also squatted 150 pounds and bench-pressed 85 pounds. And she wrestles competitively, boxes and does jiu-jitsu! But Lucy is still just a regular fourth grader. “She does 9-year-old things,” says Brett. “She’ll go to wrestling practices and then she’ll come home and put a dress on and play with her little sister.”
