He is the first Filipino and the first male Southeast Asian gymnast to medal at the World Artistic Gymnastics Championships with his floor exercise bronze medal finish in 2018, and the first-ever gold medal finish for the same criteria in 2019 in the same event. With multiple medals on the international stage, Yulo is the most successful Filipino gymnast in history.

Yulo is a six-time world championship medalist, winning two golds, two silvers, and two bronzes; a ten-time Asian champion; and a nine-time SEA Games champion. His highest placement at the Olympic Games was fourth in the vault at the 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo, Japan. He is noted for his short stature compared to other male gymnasts, his precision in form, and the difficulty of his routines, especially in the floor exercise, vault, and parallel bars.

Early life and education[edit]

Yulo attended Aurora A. Quezon Elementary School for his primary education in Manila, where he was already training for the Philippine National Games as part of the National Capital Region's gymnastics team.[12] Through the support of the GAP, he was able to attend Adamson University in Ermita for his secondary education.[2]
