November 19, 2018

Imagine what the world would be like if things like this got the media attention they deserve.

Miles Taylor is a power lifting athlete who has cerebral palsy. He's 24 years old and has been training hard in the gym for over a year.

And he just competed in his first weightlifting competition.

"What a day!! My first competition was amazing, but even more amazing is the fact that I my @neversate family, my coach @uncle.nic and a bunch of new friends in whom I just met by my side cheering on everyone! Because of them I went 9 for 9 on my lifts and hit a deadlift PR! Thank you!"
