When I told him I had 25.5% bf he didn't believe me so we measured it and it was 25.2%. He was also blown away by that and was wondering where I stored that much fat on my frame. We had a good laugh about it. My workout friend had a reading of 14% bf and he is also a newbie to this. (That bastard)

To answer your question I do the circuts by completing one set of each exercise with no rest. So Press, Row, DL then rest. I hear that isn't the most efficient way to do it but for now it works okay for me. I will fine tune this as I learn more.
Glad to hear it. I'd think it'd be more metabolically expensive to work different parts of the body one after the other.

As a side note, I was looking through my CDs and came across one of the music (guitar) of Johann Kasper Mertz - familiar to you?
