Lifting/Weights etc for a beginner

Puggles05

I need a weight/lifting 101 course please! Not really a course, but where and now to get started. Should I wait until I am close to my goal weight and stick with the majority cardio with some weights(dumbbells and using my own body weight)? Advice, tips etc please! Thank you in advance!

I'd check out bodybuilding.com I've pulled a few workouts form there that I love. As for when in your weight loss goals you should start. Not sure, there are conflicting ideas on that here. But I personally see better weight loss results when I lift. Hope this helps and good luck.

Start with a fullbody, use compund movements. Keep it simple in the beginning: squat,bench press, deadlift, military press and you're set.
