Hypertrophic legs today ...
I will say that it's really strange doing hypertrophy on my lower body, but my legs are far and away the strongest part of my body and I'd have massive legs if I always did heavy lifting. A lot of folks can get away with heavy lower body all the time but that's just not how i'm built. It's kind of a psychological battle, honestly ... i know i need to keep my lower body from running away from my upper body but loading 8 plates onto the leg press as opposed to 14 is strange. LOL

Good stuff, Sancho! Like you, I had a decade long layoff (from all things physical in my case) that resulted in massive weight gain, but i'm a bit over a year into my weight loss journey. You have any plans to modify your routine anytime soon or you sticking with a powerlifting style routine for a while?
