    When you do the seated press,do you use a backrest ? I find that if I don't I have a tough time using even 15lb dumbbells.

    No backrest. However, I do lay 2 plates over the rack footings on each side and put my toes under them for leverage against leaning back too far.

    No fooling, I actually came into contact with the bar today.

    Deadlift
    135x5
    225x5
    275x5

    Could have, somewhat surprisingly considering how long it's been, done 315, but thought it wiser to ease in a bit.

    Rowing has continued 3x weekly. Some conditioning has begun to appear, which is nice.
