I don't have health insurance, so I need to know if it will really work before I pay $200 out of my pocket for each session.

You should check with your doctor before return to the gym.

Is it good for building Ab?

I used to do that, leaning forward when coming up of the hole. Then I reduced the weight and concentrated on coming up straight, and I forced my myself to stay straight even if it meant the weight...

Light weight is good for practicing, but to truly find out if your form is good, you need to lift heavy. I would increase the weight if I could do more than 8-10 reps.

It's most likely you grab the the bar wrong.

Keep the bar in line with your wrists to prevent injury and pain.

Do you arch your back and keep your shoulders back?

You can use barbell with a rack instead.

No pullup?

As I understand, the bar should be over the mid-feet, back arch and almost parallel to the floor.

My problem is that every time I pull, the bar likes to hit my knees and thighs.

You can cover your shins with plastic. Get a plastic bottle and cut it to fit your shins.

I don't recommend anything that put a distance between your shins and the bar.

According to Mark Rippetoe, you grab the bar close to your wrist and twist your hands inward (thumbs turns face downward). So technically, the bar is rest diagonally.

Stupid question and makes no sense, but I still want to ask.

Does body adapt to foods and stops growing? Do I have to change what I eat once in awhile, or does body simply don't care?

Who were those people that told you your form was good?

When is the last time you add weight to your bench?

I have seen people benched with their feet on the bench or hung in the air. Is there reason to bench this way?
