    I was never obese -- serious or otherwise -- just didn't train for a long time. Returning back to barbell training (after three months working with dumbbells and on flexibility/mobility) my first deadlift was 115 lbs in which I sprained my back so hard I could hardly walk for two weeks.

    I just had to order 2x10kg plates as I've already outgrown what I had. I'm still lifting really light compared to you guys (even when you first started) but I am making progress which is encouraging. £33 though, and right at Christmas! Ouch.
