Jake's BBing Training in 'The Real World'

I figure I should start tracking what I’m doing again.

I really enjoy Chicago and my job so far. Diet has mostly been maintenance based. I stopped counting macros and generally avoid sugars, dairy, and gluten when I can. Strength is slowly on the rise, so let’s start putting it on paper!

Lying hamstring curls: 3 sets of 10, then a 10/10/10 drop set, 90 sec rest

Squats: 4 sets of 12 with 225, 2 min rest

Leg press narrow stance: 4 sets of 20 w/ 8pps, 1 min rest

Leg extensions: 4 sets of 20 at 200, 2 min rest

DB bulgarian split squat: 4 sets of 12 per leg, 30lb dbs, 1 min rest

BB stiff-leg RDL: 4 sets of 25 w/ 135, 90 sec rest

Whoa, nice to see you again. Hope all is well.
