Hi I have been swimming and doing Hip Hop Abs. I am looking to start some easy basic weight training that is about 30 minutes long.
I have a lot of weight to lose so I want to start weight training so that I can reduce the amount of loose skin I will have in the end.
I have a pair of 5lb weights at home to begin with and will buy more as needed.

I don't know about DVDs, but the book Starting Strength by Mark Ripptoe is excellent. You could read that and then watch youtube vids of the lifts to go along with the illustrations from the book.0
