I started with the bar (45lbs) and did 10 reps.
Added 5lbs and did 8 more.
Added another 5lbs and did 8 more.
The person I went with is in incredible shape and was telling me what to do. He said he has his own system that got him to where he is today and that is what he was going to show me until I find something that I feel works (or might work) better for me since I have no idea in what I'm doing).

That is exactly how it feels
I feel like an old star wars figure with my arms the way they are when standing up straight
