When you get font from google fonts, click on customize and select those fonts properties that you want.

Here is what you have included in the html:

<link href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=PT+Sans|Sansita" rel="stylesheet">

Here is how the customized one looks like:

<link href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=PT+Sans:400,700|Sansita:400,700,800" rel="stylesheet">

The PT Sans max font weight is 700.

Hope that helps

I forked your workspace snapshot and changed the 

nav a {font-weight: 800;}

to

nav a {font-weight: 400;}

And it works for me. Are you saving and refreshing the page after?
