Hi there
I am looking for a good work out book for weights, I would like to learn as much as I can without hiring a trainer. If you any one can suggest a great workout book for weights that would be great appreciated.

I have never used any of these, but I've heard good things about Starting Strength, by Mark Rippetoe (http://www.amazon.com/Starting-Strength-3rd-Mark-Rippetoe/dp/0982522738/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1334198938&sr=8-1); StrongLifts 5x5 (I couldn't find it on Amazon); and The New Rules of Lifting for Women (http://www.amazon.com/The-New-Rules-Lifting-Women/dp/1583333398/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1334199098&sr=1-1)0
