Five sets of 15 to 20 reps on the Smith Machine for bench presses with 30lbs. and also five sets of 15 reps each with 55 lbs. on Smith Machine barbel rows.
I then rested and tried to do a bench dip with just me. Nope. Same with a single close grip palms up chin, i could hang there but could not pull myself up. It will happen but it will take time. I was at the doctor earlier this morning and they said I could exercise again with light weight and more reps. YES!
When I first started training I did my dips at the corner of the kitchen countertop. It worked. I am not trying that yet so a bench dip will have to do. I am allowed to eat beef again (not a lot) but mostly I consume chicken and tuna. I feel "skinny-fat", LOL!
Thanks for the inspiration Nat!

Hi Scott,
Think about it. A dip is using your entire bodyweight. It's HEAVY.
Same with a pullup.
So don't feel bad and don't rush it.
Just keep moving, pal.
