Ok Just saw this! I feel better now! :D
 
Thanks everyone for the blue prints sorda speak! I think I got it down for now. I'm going to work on the straight leg dead lift to start off. I have "done" them before and thought I was doing them right, but got all messed up when a trainer was near me. No confidence I guess. I think too I'm not really sure how much weight to use, and what I should be looking (feeling) for? If I remember, I think I was using 20lbs dumbells in each hand. And now I haven't done weights in AGES :eek: so I probably should start that high.
 
Maybe you should consider getting a trainer or following a premade program. Weights seems to be your weak point, so the instruction/guidance/accountability might work wonders for you.

OK PEEPS! I want to start weight training AGAIN - and I know full body, 3 x's a week! I also know compound exercises. But whats the order of body parts?? I know I can easily beg for a routine or google it - but I want to be able to put it together myself so I can change it up every month or so - so what basics do I really need to know?? PLEASE!!??

An advice for starting training. Do this set for at least 1 to 2 months as a beginner when you train. Are basic moves for the entire body. It starts with the biggest muscles and ends with the smallest. I don´t know if you´re training already or not.
-LEGS (entire) » Leg press (45º) 3 sets/10-15 reps
-CHEST (entire)» Bench or incline press 3 sets/8-12 reps
-SHOULDERS (Delts) » Seated dumbell press 2 sets/8-12 reps
-BACK » Bent-over row 3 sets/8-12 reps
-BACK » Machine front pull-down 2-3 sets/8-12 reps
-SHOULDERS (Delts) » Dumbell lateral raise 2 sets/10-15 reps
-BICEPS » Barbell curl 3 sets/10-15 reps
-TRICEPS » Cable pressdown 3 sets/10-15 reps
-LEGS (Quads) » Leg extension 3 sets/10-15 reps
-LEGS (Gluteals) » Leg curl 3 sets/10-15 reps
-LEGS (Hamstrins) » Standing cal-raise 3 sets/15/20 reps
-ABS » Crunch 3 sets/30-50 reps

Don´t use too much weight, and learn the techniques of the movements. Use a weight that allows you to do the recommended number of reps and still reach failure. ENJOY IT
