>>150940 I don't know about the US, but here in Europe you can grab a 44 lbs kit - which will last you a long time - for as low as 30. Check on Amazon or ask around. As to how much weight you should lift, a guideline for beginners is that you should be able to do at least 8 reps for each exercise, and no more than 12. This means that if you can go over 12 reps then you should increase the weight until you can't, vice-versa if you can't reach 8. Then you do this 3 times a week: Lats: Bent-over Row 3 x 8-12 reps per arm Legs: Squat 3 x 8-12 Chest: Bench Press 3 x 8-12 Back: Deadlift 4 x 8-12 Shoulders: Upright Row 3 x 8-12 Calves: Calf Raise 3 x 8-12 per leg Biceps: Curls 3 x 8-12 per arm Abs: Leg/Hip Raise 3 x 15 Triceps: Dips 3 x 8-12
You should rest between 30 and 60 secs after each set.
