Looking for a solid weightlifting exercise reference book

Looking for a Muscle and Fitness exercise reference notebook-type of book, which is proving way more difficult to find than I'd imagined.
I did a couple of sessions with my sister's personal trainer when I went out to visit her, and he highly recommended this book he showed me. He said it should be on the Muscle & Fitness web site, but I have found neither hide nor hair of it anywhere there or anywhere else on the internet. All of our correspondences have several-week delays, but I'd like to find the book (or a substitute) well before then.
THE FACTS (as well as things I think might be facts):
-Definitely made by Muscle & Fitness
-Very thorough reference of weight exercises-- free weights and machine-- but possibly some other stuff as well
-Coilbound with thicker-than-normal, kind of glossy pages, maybe in the 150-300 page range
-My own searches are proving futile
Anybody else ever see, own, or know where I could get a copy of this book? If not, any alternatives?

Best answer: I believe this is what you are looking for - very good notebook to have with you in the gym.
Here is a link to some of their other offerings as well.

wow, I blew that one .. Sorry, didn't quite get that you were specifically looking for a logbook.

Response by poster: No worries, fisher, I didn't know it was a logbook either, but that's all the better, I guess! Thanks for the other books as well.

Perhaps Encyclopedia of Muscle & Strength is the one you're looking for? It's authored by a Muscle & Fitness editor.
