Need some help and suggestions please :)

What kind of weights do you have at home?

If you want to workout with weights, what do you need DVDs for?

For general fitness and weight loss, it's best to use a combination of strength and cardio training. Cardio for heart and lung health and weight loss, and strength training to maintain muscle and maximize fat loss.

Cardio is pretty straight forward. Walking, bicycling, various DVDs, dancing, ... anything that gets your heart rate up for 20-60 minutes.

Strength training is a little trickier. If you've never done it before, it's best to follow a proven beginner program. If you have access to a barbell with plenty of weight plates and racks, Starting Strength, New Rules of Lifting, Stronglifts 5x5, Strong Curves, and all-pro beginner are good programs. all-pro can be modified for heavy dumbbells.

If you don't have lots of room for equipment, a suspension trainer, like TRX or Jungle Gym, aren't bad choices. Or you can do a bodyweight program, like You Are Your Own Gym, Body By You, or Convict Conditioning.

The key to any strength training program is progression. All newbies should be able to progress pretty rapidly. Start easy and light, focus on good form, and add weight/difficulty weekly (or even faster, for some programs).

Most beginner strength programs are full-body routines, 3 days a week. You can do cardio on off days. Or, if you're not too worn out, do your cardio after your strength routine.

For most people, starting a strength training program is very rewarding. You'll be amazed at how fast you get stronger!

Go onto Youtube and watch as many different techniques and styles of lifting. Don't take advice from any single Youtuber. Look around and find the most accurate information you can. There are a few guys out there who are in it to make money and are not the most helpful.
