Suggestions on lifting weights?

id like to lift weights and it's become kind of boring lately for me. Mostly, I would like to Weightlift to ensure I'm building some muscle. Any recommendations on building some muscle while not being too repetitive/ boring?

    Well, if you're lifting you should be on a program with a progressive overload-meaning you are adding weight every workout or week. It shouldn't be boring. Some structured programs that are great are:
    Strong Lifts 5x5
    Strong Curves
    New Rules of Lifting for Women
    Starting Strength
    All Pros Beginner Routine
    Ice Cream Fitness

    If you want to build muscle, add 250 calories to your maintenance. You will also gain fat this way though. Do you know your body fat %?

    When your routine gets boring, time to switch up your routine
