    Hi! I started , almost a year ago, with New Rules of Lifting for Women-a book with a 6 month program-I love it! You can check it out from the library and see if you like it before you buy it. Also Strong Lifts is great-google it-few lifts, straight forward, no complications . Then there is Starting Strenght-a book with a program for beginners-I did this one too for a while. I liked it!

    Here is a link with Starting Strength http://startingstrength.wikia.com/wiki/Starting_Strength_Wiki

    Here is Strong Lifts http://stronglifts.com/

    And on MFP is a group with ladies doing New Rules of Lifting, check it out!

    Good luck to you!You can do it!

    I'm also new...and would like to benefit from the knowledge of others in the group. I don't have many "friends" for support yet so I'm searching through the groups for information. Welcome, and good luck!

    I prefer Strong Lifts over New Rules but both are good programs.

    This is a great summary of Strong Lifts:
