    Look up "body weight" exercises on YouTube.

    Body weight exercises............yes. There are also structured programs such as New Rules of Lifting for Women that explain a lot about weight lifting and you can do most of them at home with just some dumbbells. Convict Conditioning is another body weight program I think, although I've never looked at it. Other people recommend You Are Your Own Gym.

    The idea is really to learn proper form and progressively add heavier weights. A lot of people do this at home rather than a gym. I prefer the gym but we're all a little different there. I would definitely look into a structured program so you know you're balancing your body well as far as working various muscles.

    I'm doing Strong Lifts, or I was, I'm fighting a pulled muscle right now so I'm just doing what I can, but you need more gym equipment for that than some of the other programs.

    You tube is no authority. Anyone can post there, and you can really hurt yourself by mistake.
