Dr. Khashayar Farzam, an emergency room doctor in Kitchener, Ontario, set a 2nd Guinness world record at Lil's Gym in Kitchener, ON. The record was not related to his medical practice, but rather the bench press. Dr. Farzam is a long time Powerlifter who had just won the Pan American championships in Costa Rica and is the current Canadian champion. Just days after winning, he set his 2nd Guinness world record.
