George Kobaladze is a seven-time Canadian champion and five-time Canada's Best Male Lifter (2014, 2013, 2012, 2011 and 2009).

The athlete currently holds the Canadian records in the superheavyweight class, with 175 kg lift in the snatch, 227 kg lift in the clean and jerk for a total of 402 kg (both lifts combined).
