What is your favorite exercise database or encyclopedia?
I know about www.acefitness.org and www.exrx.net. What other resources are out there for the low budget trainer or fitness junkie to learn a greater variety of safe and effective exercises?
YouTube! Just be careful, there is some seriously BAD form out there…
Also, great reference books for training WOMEN specifically:
The Ultimate Body SHaping Bible
The Body Sculpting Bible for Women
The New Rules of Lifting for Women
Muscle & Fitness Hers 101 Workouts for Women
Muscle & Fitness Hers A Woman’s Guide to Weight Training
Also, I *LOVE* FitDecks, although some can be VERY basic.
I like PTontheNet, but that is a membership site. You can also use Perform Better which has some useful exercise information and advice.

In addition to the above answers, I would like to add Men’s Health and Fitness magazine, and the livestrong site. Also, Stew Smith at http://www.stewsmith.com/ a former Navy SEAL and expert in fitness could be a great assistance to you.
Best,
