Watch out for
A small lean is fine. Rowing with your whole torso means the weight is too heavy.

3 sets·10-12 reps
No history for this one yet. Start lighter than you think you need — you should finish every set feeling like you had four or five more reps in you. You can always add weight next session; a strain costs you weeks.
Set the pin low for your first set and add from there. Nothing is lost by starting too light on day one.
