In Response To: Lifter Quiz *PIC* (Mark Cameron)

Mark:

Could you comment on your historic 501+ lb Clean & Jerk...the training leading up to it....the actual meet itself that you made this great lift ... and how the actual lift itself felt !!!

This is one of the great Clean & Jerks in American LIFTING HISTORY. There is NO USA man who has ever C&J'ed this much 227.5kg in the C&J in competition who weighed less than 110kg, that I am aware of. You had one EXPLOSIVE JERK !!!

This was a GREAT lift. I saw it on TV (CBS). Tell us about it if you can. Many of us are very curious and would like to know everything about it. What was your exact bodyweight and what movements did you concentrate on leading up to it to, to have such an explosive jerk ?

What was your JERK OFF RACK training weights or whatever you did to JERK that much ?

Thx for any info
