What do you think is causing that to happen.
Training hard & heavy, shocking the body, maybe that why your holding water.
Types of food eaten before leg day, or pre workout mix, hormones natural or otherwise.

I don't weigh myself, so can't comment on any weight gain after leg day,
I notice I can't eat my usual sized meal after & split it in two.

Yes I would think it is.
I also get DOMS quite severe after legs.

For me it's the opposite, being a hardgainer I always lose weight on leg days and have to put it back in.

Maybe you're just like Levrone and gain 5 lbs of pure tissue every work out leading up to the day of the contest..jk but i think it is more diet dependent than anything
