re: Mickey Johnson takes State 5A lifting title

Talked to a kid that competed for WM.
Johnson definitely used a bench top and squat suit. He would have been dumb not too.
FWIW the kid I talked to believed Chuck Hunter would have beat Johnson in squat and dead lift with the help of a suit. Hunter squatted 500 raw (no suit) as a Junior.

Suits are great for helping eliminate fatigue from holding the weight at the bottom of the lift while you wait for the judge to give the lift signal, but they don't help with the actual press. Too any people think that suits actually lift more weight for you, and thats not true.
Regardless, suit or no, dude is a beast. He's got the strength. Now, I want to see him get out there and improve his speed and quickness. A few points off his shuttle time and shave some time off the first 15 yards of his 40 and then I'll be really impressed.
