The other is that I am able to press in a more natural line given flexibility level, past injuries etc than with a barbell.

Loading is an issue though.

You may want to check out some info on Eat Stop Eat as well. I like it in that I just don't eat for a day (I choose a day where I'm busy) and can go about the rest of the 5 or 6 days I am eating without any trouble.
Totally agree.

Will check that book out.

Thx.
