OP here.
>>116022 I started off really light, as I am rather weak. Think: warmup set with empty bar, then progressing to no more than 40lb. It wasn't TOTALLY taxing but I started light to practice good form, doh :/
>>116028 I am in the UK and get private health care through work perks anyway. I guess I just need to get referred by the doctor. What should I ask for, physiotherapy, osteopathy or chiropractic?
With regards to finding someone to teach me..I went for a look round the only gym near me that has weights (contained in a separate weight lifting room). One of the staff, a gym instructor showed me round. He skipped the weight room though. I asked to see it and he said "no, it's full of crazy roid popping thugs". I did peep in there on my own, and in fairness it was very intimidating, I feel I could not venture in there since I can't even lift more than 50lb, and all the guys in there were twice my size. But it pissed me that the staff were like that. Anyway that is why I bought a barbell set and bench for my room. Maybe I should just tough it, and go in there and ask someone that looks like they know what they are doing. Or hire a personal trainer?
