   well if you just want looks then do alot of wight but only a couple of reps
   but if you want strenght do a litlle wight but alot of reps
   also once you build muscle you got to keep going or else you lose mucle mass and get extra skin and stuff

   Make sure that along with weight training, you do some cardio too.

   I use this website to make up weight routines – it is pretty good

   your question is so general. It depends on what kind of muscle you want. Do you want pretty, small muscles? medium sized medium definition? or large bulk muscles? My honest to god opinion is to spend about 100 bucks and go get that P 90 X workout routine video collection. By the way, if you are under 16, don’t bother. Working out will destroy your bones growth plates, and stunt your growth. Otherwise do a combination of arm curls, bench pressing and butterfly for your back muscles. the next day work on your legs, doing presses, squats, leg ups, and reverse leg ups. mix in some push ups and sit ups and you are good. It might be smart for you to google weight ratios to repetition amounts as you seem to be very uninformed on how to do this properly. For your basics, you want to do about 30% of your maximum lift ability at 15 reps a set, to develop stamina in your muscles and make them lean and pretty. 50% of your maximum at 10 reps a set for a medium ground workout between bulk and stamina, and 80% of your maximum at 3-5 reps a set for bulk building to increase muscle size and strength. Also MOST IMPORTANTLY, working out isn’t going to help you crap if you don’t eat a specialized diet towards what your goal is.
