My gym is not the best (but it's cheap!!). The pt's are not good. I want to learn how to lift but have no clue where to start.

I own p90x - will this help me bulk up? I am scrawny :-(

Tips?

    There is a book called the New Rules of Lifting for Women that is pretty good. It talks a lot about lifting and then gives you a program to follow. Strong Lifts and Starting Strength I've heard are also good places to start but I have not looked in to either very closely. I learned the most by reading the forums and checking out some other sites. Take a look at the posts stuck to the top in this forum and just keep reading and reading! Good luck.
