After coming off a top 10 all-time multiply bench press performance, I'm now taking a few weeks to get back into some light hypertrophy training. My focus right now is to keep my body healthy and feeling good, while laying a solid foundation to start a new off season full power training cycle by the end of August.

Thursday's leg session was one that had to be crammed in under 45 minutes, and it totally kicked my butt. I used supersets for just about everything and kept my rest periods to practically nonexistent. Sometimes that can make for some of the best training sessions, because then you know you can't talk, jack around, need to pick efficient movements, and go in on a mission. Definitely something I needed recently to help give me a little push. I'm just excited to get back to training with everyone on Saturday and Sunday and really start to move some weight!
