Chris Duffin is a world-class strength athlete, inventor, and entrepreneur known for pushing life to the extremes—performance, competence, and achievement. He is the founder of Kabuki Strength and advisor to companies like Bearfoot Shoes and LiftLab, blending engineering, biomechanics, and human performance into transformative products and education.

A record-holding powerlifter, Chris is the only person to squat and deadlift 1000+ lbs for reps and holds the Guinness World Record for the heaviest sumo deadlift. His innovations impact professional sports teams, military branches, and thousands of athletes worldwide.

Raised in extreme adversity, Chris overcame homelessness and a chaotic childhood to become a top student, engineer, and entrepreneur. He is also a sought-after keynote speaker, author, and thought leader in personal development. Father of three and husband to a Canadian chef, he balances family life with building businesses, mentoring others, and pursuing his love of adventure.
