Road To Paris #3 - Aniq Kasdan

On our Road To Paris series, we're shining a spotlight on the Malaysian contingent heading to the upcoming Summer Olympics. This week, we hear from 22-year-old weightlifter Aniq Kasdan - reigning Commonwealth Games gold medalist, current national record holder, and ranked eighth in the world in the Men's 61kg category - as he prepares for his maiden Games. We find out about his weightlifting journey so far, how he's training to break that 300kg mark for his shot at the podium in Paris, and carrying the weight of the sport on his shoulders.
