Johnnie Jackson and powerlifting

It is not a secret that bodybuilders are very strong. Some of them are stronger than powerlifters. For example — Johnnie Jackson. So he decided to come back to the powerlifting for some time.

Competitions took place on June, 29th, but not all was in a way Jackson planned. And it is not surprising, in fact the athlete has weaned from specificity of power triathlon that should affect a course of performance. On a bench press Johnnie was red-lighted because he has a little moved a leg. During the thirds of attempt Jackson locked out his right arm before he locked out his left arm, for what he was red-lighted again.

On the deadlift Johnnie got his first attempt very easy and broke the USPF world record, having 350 kg (it is less than he do usually). On the second attempt 375 kg have been declared, but attempt has not been included, as the sportsman didn't lock out his hips all the way. The third attempt he did not get at all.

Now Jackson is on track to compete at the Europa Super Show on August, 15-16th. But, knowing about love of the sportsman to powerlifting, I think it will be possible to meet him at the such kind of competitions.
