Start by lifting weights that you feel comfortable with and see how many reps you can do. By gradually increasing the number/weight you will be able to see your progress as the days/weeks go on. I am naturally slim and was self-conscious of the lack of bulk on my arms however after just 2 weeks of weight lifting I can already see a slight difference!
It is important not to over do it as it can cause headaches and muscle strain. A set weight of 2-5kg for each arm will ensure toned arms and strengthens the heart.
great info. I just joined a new gym and have started to incorporate weight lifting into my workouts, it has been working quite nicely.
