I did two full-body workout this week and will probably do more upper-body work later today. (I neeeeeed it.)

I've been working on the machines for a few weeks because, well, you don't have to think about them much and it was an easy way to start. Lately I've started eying the free weights. :D We'll see. (Although there's no way I'm giving up the assisted chin-up machine. I love that no matter how bad I am at it.)

*tempts you*

Come over to the Dark Side, we have kettlebells ...

(Though I hear assisted chin-up machines are indeed awesome; I've never had a chance to try one.)

I live for the assisted chin-up machine, myself, but I tend to avoid all other machines unless all the 12 and 15-lb free weights are taken. Free weights are just way more fun.
