Jonathan Chin to compete for Team England in weightlifting

Jonathan Chin, an NHS doctor from Chapel Brampton, will compete in the 71kg weightlifting category for Team England at the Commonwealth Games on Monday at 9:00 BST. Juggling a demanding job of 50 to 70 hours a week, Chin found his way to weightlifting after an injury ended his sprinting career. He has shown dedication by training in limited time and has already won a major medal in India shortly after completing his university exams in 2023. Chin is currently working to meet the weight limit, as he weighs 71.5kg and needs to lose 500g before the competition.
