Anybody know people with autism who do Olympic weightlifting. I would like to start of my boy, but it's hard finding out any information about it for kids.
Thanks.

Hi Martyboyo.
My career is in the fitness industry and having aspergers myself, I enjoy weight training and recently got certified in Level 1 WeightLifting. I recommend contact British Weight Lifting. The guy that taught me was friendly and they're keen to help people get into the sport. Don't be put off by the British title either, I am Irish and they operate here too and they're keen to help. I hope this helps and good luck. It's a fantastic sport.
