Hey, I really want to start adding weight training to my exercise but I'm not really sure what is best to do.
I can't really afford a gym membership (I'm a student) so I'm trying to do as much as possible at home. Other than the tiny bit of strength training I've done in 30DS I have absolutely no experience. I'm aware I will have to buy weights but I'm hoping they will be an investment.
I've seen some amazing pictures of women that have really lost BF% and look great and I want to be one of them!!!
Advice please?

Take a look at StrongLifts 5x5 - read the New Rules of Lifting series. If you are a student does the school have a fitness center? Can you get student rates at your local gym?0

I can get student rates at the Gym but the year is almost over and I'd have to pay for extra time that I wouldn't be using... or pay a fortune to go each time.
I'm going home in June though so am looking to start there because I'll get my moneys worth...0
