Giti Mousavi Breaks Record by Pulling 18-Ton Plane

An Interview with Giti Mousavi

In a recent interview, when asked about the stress and pressure of lifting such heavy weights, Giti expressed confidence in her training and technique. “It felt like I picked up a two-kilogram weight,” she noted, explaining that the proper lifting techniques and years of training minimized the risk of injury. She also shared her experiences with asthma, which posed some challenges during her attempts but never deterred her from pushing her limits.

Mousavi was quick to highlight the importance of method and preparation in strength sports, underscoring that even at high levels of exertion, proper technique should always come first to avoid injury. Furthermore, her passion for bodybuilding transcends the physical realm—she sees it as a means of personal expression and empowerment.

Family and Support

Giti Mousavi’s family plays a crucial role in her life and career. Ever supportive, they have been her steadfast cheerleaders. Her mother, though often concerned for her well-being, eventually learned to appreciate Giti’s passion and determination. “I think she has now accepted that her daughter has become a man for herself,” Mousavi said, laughing while recalling how her mother would recite prayers for her during her heavy lifting attempts.

Her marriage in 2003 brought a new dimension to her life, with Giti welcoming a daughter in 2004. Despite the challenges of balancing family life and an intense training schedule, Giti remains dedicated to her sport, finding encouragement both within her family and the community.
