Throwback Motivation! Branch Warren Does Insanely Heavy Leg Day

Branch Warren is still an absolute savage in the gym.

When many athletes go into retirement, they at times choose to completely leave their chosen sport behind. Instead of continuously shooting free throws, a basketball player may choose to instead take up golf, instead of hitting the heavy bag, a boxer may choose to engage in yoga. But with bodybuilding there tends to be a trend towards sticking with what got them to the dance.

While a professional bodybuilder may not choose to lift the same amount of weight they used to, they do tend to stick with fitness and continue to lift. It just goes to show you that in order to really be a great bodybuilder you have to enjoy training and engrain the practice into your very being.

Then there’s Branch Warren.

While he may have retired from the stage, Branch Warren is still lifting in the gym. But as a staple of MetroFlex Gym, you can bet that Branch Warren isn’t choosing to simply lower the weight and take things easy. On the contrary. Branch Warren is pushing himself harder than ever, still lifting like an absolute monster.

A recent clip on his Instagram page shows the retired bodybuilder putting himself through an insanely savage leg day with none other than Johnnie O Jackson at his side to back him up.

It’s inspiring to see Branch Warren still choosing to push himself to his limits in the gym. While he may be retired from competition, it doesn’t mean he’s done with bodybuilding one bit.
