Need some weight lifting tips please!?

Slow but steady: Start easy and don't overdo it. The biggest mistake i see is people overdo it, then are unable to resume the program for many days. I recommend starting with low-impact cardiovascular exercise, then weight training, then stretching. Low weight, high reps tends to create strength with muscle tone and definition. High weight, worked to fatigue, low reps, tends to create muscle bulk.
