If you want strength, start with lower weights and do more reps. That'll build actual muscle. Make sure you eat/drink plenty of protein and complex carbs.
Not a FU. Just didn't know any better!
Pro tip: if you cant get it back up to the rack, roll the bar down your body until it gets to your hips, then sit up and ask for help getting it back up to the rack and take a break.
