@tuneh Impressive numbers! Will look into those, thanks.

@adidan1 That seems to be the consensus... makes sense. Thanks for the input!

@miaadora Hadn't heard of Ice Cream fitness before, looked it up, thanks. I'd have to approximate a few of the accessory exercises (our gym has no machines or cable-stuff), but it looks doable. I think for where I am now an on-off rhythm like that is what I'm looking for to allow for...

@samamph Thanks for the input! I have a number of goals listed above, but none of them are weight-focused. I want to build muscle, and I will likely end up gaining weight if I do so, and I may even track my weight as a secondary stat to help gauge progress... but the gaining or losing of...
