Well I don't think in kg's :) so let me just say that bench tends to be more difficult to get going again than things like squat or deads. I can't predict what will work for you but the bottom line...

Well sounds like a good plan to me. Except I'm not sure if you plan to increase the weight right away with the new lower volume. What I would do is hold the old weights over the first time to get...

It said that was a typical beginner. I must have been an extraordinarily weak, weak, weak individual when I started. I suspect it has a lot to do with proper instruction and being an actual beginner...

I wouldn't do those ramped sets like that. Just do the minumum you have to do to get a good warmup and acclimation and do your one heavy set. So if what you have been doing is good stick with it or...

65 to 70% of the weight you use that day. It's JUST a ballpark. Just remember the idea is to get "practice" under the bar and work on technique. In other words to get in the groove of it again. It...

I kinda feel like that weight for the squat back off was a little high. Not really talking about an all our effort. Drop it down to 65 to 70% and do the amount of reps you can do spot on before form...

Well sure, you can try that. I would recommend doing a back off or two, after those. It will help you.

Yeah, I'm not saying right now. But don't ignore it if your back gets more rather than less sore, you know? Don't keep going just because you can if you find that you are getting a constant tightness...
