Titans (Part II): The Blade
(Dexter Jackson)
a review by
Steve Buccilli
I've always appreciated Dexter Jackson, but was never
a big fan of his until last year. Oh sure, Dex always
showed up ripped and ready, but to me was kinda small.
For that reason I've always wondered, "What can this
guy offer in the way of inspiration?"
His new DVD shows what he has to offer -- Dexter is now a
freak! Huge arms, and delts from another planet. Quads so
thick and with such great shape. I remember reading that
from the side, Sergio Oliva's thighs had such detail that
they appeared to be carved by a sword. Dexter’s
thighs from the side look etched by a laser. His
back, which many people have complained is too high, is
awe inspiring. Some say he has high lats -- big deal. His
upper back is so jammed with muscle, the skin can hardly
contain itself.
Not to mention Dexter’s workouts are intense and
heavy. Dexter just isn't a genetic freak, he's one
hardass hardcore trainer. Heavy deadlifts and T-bar rows,
405+ flat benches, outragous delts with dumbbell presses,
etc. At one point he is sitting down facing the camera
head on in a tank top, and his upper body doesn't look
real. He’s super thick, round and wide.
This DVD showcases a full body workout and shows off
Dexeter extremely well. Dex is ready for prime time, and
frequently poses after his workouts to show you his
physique.
We also see Dex during a photoshoot in Las Vegas, and
appearing at Shawn Ray’s seminar.
This DVD showcases Dexter in phenomenal shape, ripped and
ready for the 2004 Mr. Olympia, where he placed 4th (he
should have been higher). All in all, it’s a great
DVD, with everything a fan of Dexter’s could want.
It should make him some new fans as well.
