Lifting for a total beginner at home

Hi All,

I keep reading how lifting heavy is really good, muscle development helps burn cals and create definition and and gives you are really good, fit look (lol) :smile:

So, I have been thinking that I'd like to start weight training but I've no idea where to start!

I have a couple of light weights (dumbells) which I could use and I could splash out and buy more weights to use at home (dumbell / kettlebells).

Can any of you lovely people point me in the right direction, maybe point me towards a good training programme?

I have lost 37lbs and have got around 30lbs to go. I am 5ft 4 and weigh 184 lbs. I am doing low carb and am on 1200 cals (as MFP has suggested). I down usually eat back exercise cals (although I do occasionally dip into them). I do bootcamp 3 x per week and I walk / do a bit of treadmill for 30-60 mins most days.

Thanks in advance! :smile:
