I think Lou Schuler said in TAP: no matter which gym you go to, the music sucks. Good move on getting the MP3 player.

This is just a very general rule of thumb: if you can finish all your reps/sets easily, then go up. You should be just barely able to finish all your reps/sets, or perhaps miss a rep or two near the end, then work on getting all of them. Once you can do them all for two workouts, go up again.
Loved the gawker story about the guy who was dumbfounded to see a woman doing deads. Nice!
