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.

Wednesday evening I was able to get some more bodybuilding based training in, and this was a fun quick training session. Still trying to ease back into things and keep training fun. Some really good supersets here to keep things moving quick and keep the pump going.
