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.

Friday evening I was able to jump back into my routine and knock out a nasty leg training session with all the drop sets I could handle. I cranked the session out in about 90 minutes, and then went home and crushed some good food and went to bed. It was a long work week, and training week. I also had a wedding coming up the following Saturday.
