Some guys skip leg day. Some guys say they train glutes.

Wells? Wells makes it a priority.

There he was at the Golden Army Gym, feet planted wide, bar loaded just enough to make a statement. Slow reps. Deep range. Full control. Every hinge deliberate. Every squeeze intentional. No rushing the movement, because when you’re working on something that important, you take your time.

Down slow. Up strong. Hold at the top.

Yeah… that part.

He caught his reflection mid-rep and smirked. The kind of look that says he knows exactly what he’s building back there and exactly who’s watching. The bar didn’t bounce. The plates didn’t rattle. Everything stayed tight, stable, and fully engaged.

Built from the ground up doesn’t mean flashy lifts or crowd-pleasing numbers. It means dropping low, loading tension where it counts, and owning every inch of the grind no one applauds.

Wells sinks into the movement with intent, slow, controlled, unapologetic. One knee drives forward, the other leg fires back, gold fabric stretching and catching the light as muscle locks in and releases again. Every rep is deliberate. No rush. No wasted motion. Just pressure, control, and the quiet confidence that comes from knowing exactly what he’s building back there.

He braces a hand on the bench, grips the dumbbells, and drives through his hips like he knows people are watching—even if they’re pretending not to. This isn’t about showing off. This is about shaping power where it starts. Strength you feel before you see. The kind that carries through every lift, every stride, every stance.

Then he moves to the cables. Same focus. Same calm dominance. One leg extends back, cable tight, glutes firing hard enough to remind him why leg day earns its reputation. Wells glances over his shoulder, not checking form, just acknowledging the work. Built strong. Built solid. Built to carry everything else.

Because real balance isn’t just pushing weight overhead. It’s making sure nothing behind you gets left undeveloped.

Built. From. The ground up.

“Gotta work the backside,” he muttered. “Balance is important.”

And honestly? He wasn’t wrong.

Golden Army knows the truth: power doesn’t just come from what you can push, it comes from what you can drive. And Wells? He’s got more drive than most.

If you felt a little distracted watching him finish that set, don’t worry. That’s just good training technique.
