Some things to keep in mind when strength training: Always warm up before you begin your workout by walking for 5 to 10 minutes. Start with only 3 sets of 10 repetitions. As your strength improves, add extra repetitions or sets. For example, do 15 or 20 repetitions instead of 10. Or do 4 sets instead of 3. Start initially with 2-3 lb dumbbells. As your strength improves, gradually increase the weight of dumbbells. Remember the last few repetitions should be somewhat challenging. It is always advisable to start slow and then gradually increase the weight.
