i did these on monday and started with the olympic bar. for the second (and third sets - 'cause i'm a dope and did three sets of everything) i moved up to 65 pounds. but i was doing 30 pound dumbbell presses in stage one and lisa did say that with the push-press we should be able to add a bit of weight from those because of the stability of the barbell.

and mine were pretty awkward too - had a tough time rolling the bar back and forth from my fingers to the meat of my hand for the press.
