Hi I See all these post about lifting heavy,how ever my questions are,is this something that a person like me
5ft tall,195 lbs can do? Also I just started back into weights,I do a routine with the nautalis (sp?) at the gym
haven't been this week since I have been visiting my mom but I have done some free weights,how ever right now
I can only handle 5,lbs weights (in each hand) Is it okay to just start out small and eventually increase my weights?

    Yes, start small and increase. If you're interested in lifting heavy, check out New Rule of Lifting For Women. It spells out everything you need to know to get strong!!

    And I'm 5'3", 200lbs, lifting heavy and I feel great.
