I remember my first few workouts I was staring at the squat rack from a distance and mentally planning out how I should load it and how to weave through the guys blocking it.

Ha! That is
exactly what I've been doing.
So, here are my numbers from my first two workouts. I can only go up from here, right? I definitely need to up my weight on deadlifts and lunges next workout, as neither felt gut-wrenchingly challenging to me. However, I was still just feeling things out and figuring out what weight to use. I definitely struggled most with the upper body stuff - pushups and shoulder press are tough for me.
Workout 1, A: 2x15
Squats- 40/15, 40/15
Push-ups (30 degree)- bw/10, bw/15
Seated Row- 60/15, 60/15
Step-up (step w/ four risers) - 12.5/15, 12.5/15
2x8 Prone Jackknife - 8, 8
Workout 1, B: 2x15
Deadlift - 50/15, 50/15
Dumbell shoulder press- 15/15, 15/12
Wide-Grip Lat pulldown - 55/15, 55/15
Lunge - 10/15, 12.5/15
2x8 Swiss ball crunch- 8, 8
