Good Morning All!

So I think it's about that time for me to start lifting weights. I have some experience in it, but I feel like I need a regimented plan. So please tell me your routines and if you have pictures of before and after lifting that would be great as well!

Thanks all :)

    New rules of lifting for Women (a book) is a good start for newbies.

    Strong Lift 5X5 (stronglifts.com) is simple and easy to follow. However, if you completely new to lifting, I suggest consulting a trainer on proper techniques.

    I have pics on my profile of my lifting success.
