After having set an all-time PR on my equipped bench press with 457lbs, I'm taking the next 12-16 weeks to focus on hypertrophy training. My wife is beginning to diet to do a show within the next year, so I'm shifting this time to join in her footsteps for support. I'm hoping to compete again before the end of 2019.

This was a great Friday leg training. I focused on hitting my glutes a bit more than normal, and I was walking funny the next day or two. We're coming close to ending this hypertrophy training, so we'll see how many more weeks I can gut out stuff like this.
