Dexter Jackson is Still Training Hard in Retirement at 210 Lbs, Hints at Big News

Dexter Jackson is hints at big news as he trains hard in the gym.

The legend Dexter Jackson may be retired from competition but that doesn’t mean he isn’t still pushing hard in the gym. Jackson is definitely downsized since we last saw him, but he definitely has plenty of muscle on his frame. The 2008 Olympia champion is looking strong and is even hinting at big news to come.

Jackson has always been sharp as a blade. Whether in season or off season, Jackson has always been in great shape. The one-time Olympia champion is looking incredible even in retirement. Jackson is the winningest bodybuilder of all-time. With every triumphant victory Jackson further cemented his legacy as an all-time great bodybuilder.

After retiring from competition, the bodybuilding community saw firsthand how Dexter Jackson downsized. Jackson was once over 220lbs. Now the bodybuilding legend has downsized to 210lbs. But that by no means suggests he’s lost a step. On the contrary. Jackson is still training hard and looking strong in the gym.

Still in Top Form

Recently Dexter Jackson posted a video of himself training chest with some hefty dumbbells. In the video Jackson looked as strong as ever as he pushed the weight with ease.
