Everything2Los: I do similar. I used to do machines, but gradually switched to mostly free weights when I had a fitness coach (on line, but she set up a personal routine written specifically for me about every 5 weeks or so). anyway, my husband and I bought a weight bench and free weights and later dropped the gym…

you're welcome.
