I'm pretty much planning to build my strength back up and only then start properly working on technique.
Before my surgery I was benching just over 200lbs. Now I am doing 56lbs. Aeee.
I got a new weight set after my wages FINALLY cleared and I could afford one from Craigslist. Between that and the great advice from this board I will get there in time and I am confident I will do well.

Alan, I really hope your back heals up well. Good luck that!
