After sustaining multiple low back issues the past year, I'm now focusing on being a bench press specialist for the next year or so (both raw and equipped). I'm currently just trying to increase muscle mass and keep my low back healthy and give it time to rest and recover.

Tuesday morning I got in another quick, high intensity based leg training session. I was again cramped for time, so I opted to really crank the density with supersets to get all the work in that I really wanted. It's a bit less than I did lasts week, which was a grueling day. I've managed to get rather creative with some of these session to keep things fun, and keep my back happy. I've got to say my hip is feeling much, much better.
