I just ordered a lot of cool stuff.  I'm getting:

1. All 3 H2H DVDs ($80): http://www.tacticalathlete.com/specials.htm
2. Stretch to Win DVD ($25): http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000JCDTZC/002-2461471-9890450
3. Led Zeppelin Guitar Tab Book ($17): http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0769205607/002-2461471-9890450
4. The Sequel to Ironmind ($15): http://www6.mailordercentral.com/ironmind/prodinfo.asp?number=1288
5. Brad Johnson's Bodyweight Exercises Book ($14): http://www6.mailordercentral.com/ironmind/prodinfo.asp?number=1396

There are a number of other items I considered, but for the time being I have the tools needed to perform my workouts.  These purchases are not needed but will definitely add to the entertainment value of my variety days.  Items on the list that were also considered include:

- Kettlebell Basics for Strength Coaches and Personal Trainers DVD
- 12k, 20k, 24k, 36k Kettlebells
- Art of Strength Kettlebell DVDs
- In person kettlebell instruction
- Plyo Box
- FBBC Pinch Bar
- FBBC 117lb Inch, whenever they come out
- Steel to progress spike bending
- 45lb plates
- Pair of 100lb plates
- Pair of 50lb Scale Weights
- Farmers Bars
- Trap Bar

Who knows what else will end up on the list.  I've learned by now to only buy equipment that immediately supports my current training cycle.  I'll be watching for the mail.

      Wow, that is a heck of a list and a pretty penny. You're getting a lot of bang for your buck though. I'll be interested to read your thoughts on the gear.

      The gym I was going to downtown cost $100 a month, so that puts the prices in a different perspective for me. I'll probably spread those equipment purchases over a few years.

      My powerblocks are up to $125 on the ebay auction, so I think I'll make enought to cover Saturday's purchases. I also threw an old guitar up there. I'm hoping to get around $100 for it, but no bids yet.
