The workouts are 2 whole body supersets of 3 exercises and include a 1.5-mile run and push-ups (have to keep working on that PRT). I would recommend a similar program to any beginner to weightlifting.

165.5, that's light!! I am 5'6" and currently weigh 216, working on getting down to 175-180. I'm mostly teasing too. Great job!!!
I pulled the trigger on a spin bike for my next phase of workouts. I ordered up a "scratch and dent" Costco return of a Diamondback Fitness 510ic. Found it on eBay for about $250 less than new. Should be here when I get back from Vegas.
Oh yeah, heading to Vegas this weekend to ruin my diet. Hopefully the massive amounts of walking will help to offset the Hash House A-Go-Go I plan on eating.
