![]() Photo by Fabiano Advertising via Pixabay I'm not quite this far along yet, but making progress! I am using the squat rack at our fitness center and can lift 85 lbs., 2 sets of 8 reps. It feels heavy, but good. I'm also doing deadlifts using a hex bar, which has handles that help me keep proper form. I'm up to 85 lbs. deadlifting as well. My trainer helped me focus on a few points of my form. As I progress toward heavier weights, I plan to sign up for another series of personal training, and maybe add a bench press to my routine. In addition to working on bone density in my spine, these exercises increase my overall strength and I feel really good afterwards.
