Notes:
"Rest with..." means that each time you stop an exercise to rest (i.e. after my first 6 reps of bench press), before you can rest, you must execute a set of the noted exercise... so my 205# Bench Press workout looked like this: 6 reps BP, 10 pushups, rest, 5 reps BP, 10 pushups, rest, 4 reps BP, 10 pushups, rest, 3 reps BP, 10 pushups, rest, 2 reps BP, 10 pushups.  These are treated as supersets, so don't take a break until the second exercise set is complete.
