There was a time when International Federation of Bodybuilding and Fitness (IFBB) Pro League member Johnnie Jackson was a fixture on the competitive circuit. In the 2010s alone, the 52-year-old appeared in almost 20 sanctioned IFBB competitions. Overall, in a nearly two-decade-long career, Jackson can boast close to 60 appearances in bodybuilding contests. His profile spans back so far, he can boast of squaring off against various Mr. Olympia<\/a> legends like Ronnie Coleman<\/a>, Jay Cutler<\/a>, and Phil Heath<\/a>. However, after 2017, while he never formally retired, Jackson stopped appearing on stage \u2014 aside from a brief return with two contests in 2020.<\/p>\n

Instead, the winner of the “2009 World’s Strongest Professional Bodybuilder” title has since shifted away from posing to primarily focus on strength training<\/a> \u2014 as one glance at his Instagram would indicate. That might change very soon. On Jan. 30, 2023, Jackson appeared in a podcast episode with Muscular Development<\/em>, where he discussed upcoming plans. Over the course of the appearance, the seasoned pro elaborated on making a potential comeback at the 2023 Masters Olympia<\/a> on Aug. 26-27, 2023, in Cluj-Napoca, Romania<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
