I agree.
If those are you legs in your avvy then I wouldn't worry about your upper body overpowering your lower.
If it gets to that point then just back off a little.
You have some good wheels for sure.
Are calves out of the question?
Good luck on the surgery.

Those are my wheels in my avatar and due to surgery I can now squat again once the hip prosthetic fuses with the bone. But before I can return to squats, I have to let the new hip grow into my bone. I am not "contest ready" -- let's put it that way.

only thing I can add is Try to do very strict Deadlifts with light to mid weight on the back and biceps day

this will keep legs or at least Hams and lower back primed for when you start doing legs again

I know this sounds hard to do but if you had a hip replacement I would look at doing something like swimming for the next two years. The very last thing you want is that replacement to breakout of the femur. If that happens you will be down for life. Two years in the pool with the babes doesn't sound to bad compared to crippled for life.

What happened to need such a surgery?

Bro:
I confirmed it with the doc before the surgery or else it would not be worth it to me. He does 800 per year, 7 on the same day as mine. He's the pioneer for minimally invasive, he assured me I could resume my prior routine, it just takes approx 6 weeks for prosthetic and leg to fuse and then it become part of you. He assured me, or else I would not have bothered with surgery.
