The girl from bodyrock? Yeah she's awesome, a female terminator. She has tons of exercises, I just need to select a few to supplement my routine. Recently I joined a small old school no nonsense gym that is pretty bare bone (can't ask for much for $6 per visit right) so I need to alter a few things I've been doing up until now.

One more thing re: starting strength routine, I noticed there are quite few reps, which is okay if you want to bulk up, but as long as "body sculpting" goes I'd recommend less weight/more reps (8-10). Last but not least, some lifts (technique) differ if you are lifter (going for strength) and body builder (going for how good muscle "look"), most glaring example being bench press. I haven't read the book yet (I will) so I don't know what technique Ripptoe uses but it's something to keep in mind.
