Another vote for starting strength/stronglifts here as a starting point. Watch a lot of videos, start light, ask for help. Look, the very first time I tried lifting weights, I didn't understand the use of clips and I was surrounded by 100% college gym bros and it was just the worst.

Squat 250 lbs+, deadlift 300 lbs+, bench 125 lbs+ by the end of 2015!

There is absolutely nothing wrong with starting light - that way you can focus primarily on form. Over time, the bigger weights will…

squats and overhead press on Wendler's 5/3/1 week 2

I think the monetary investment depends on your lifting goals. A typical squat rack can cost from maybe $300ish-$600+ give or take (OR some people make their own), and then you also have to invest in some weights for the rack. So if you want to lift long term, buying stuff for a home gym might be a great investment. I'm a…

I am serious about lifting two things: barbells and doughnuts (the latter to my face...)
