Person lifting weights: dark skin tone Emoji

People

A dark-skinned person squatting while lifting a heavy black barbell loaded with iron plates over their head. The figure is depicted in a concentrated, athletic stance, clearly engaged in a strenuous resistance exercise.

History

While the base weightlifter emoji debuted in Unicode 6.0 in 2010, the dark skin tone variant was added in 2015 as part of the expansion of the Fitzpatrick scale modifiers. This update allowed users to better represent human diversity within the growing catalog of activity-based characters.
