My site, Beast Skills, is known for various gymnastic feats of strength. But I let people know time and time again that I enjoy lifting heavy weights too!
Here's a montage of my lifts from the Cap City Open. I went 6 for 6 and got two meet PR's. Couldn't have gone any better.
So don't let people tell you what you can and can't do. Can you train both Weightlifting and gymnastics? Sure! Pursue what you love.
I'd like to thank all my friends and my fiancee, Kori, for their incredible support that day (and all the other days too!). Now it's back to the gym, I've got a lot of room to improve!
