Increased weight on squats: now consistently at 35 lb. Tried step-ups holding 20 lbs in each hand. Ow, but possible.
Still can't bench press more than 30 lbs, whine whine. I may do a question post on that soon, as there are some tactical issues involved.
Flys with 15 lbs in each hand -- just 2x5, but I'm going to try and get to 2x6 next week.
Pulled down 90 lbs 7 times!
Also, my physical therapist showed me how to do the plank exercise for ab work. I can just manage 40 seconds on elbows and knees. Hope to go up to a minute by the end of the month, and try the elbows and feet version after that.
