Steve, you'r doing really good for your first time, I started out even lower I think. Keep going, that's the most important thing.

Funny you mentioned this today Steve-0 as I've just started back at gym today. I like to start off on the running machine (it gives me a rush for some reason?) - keeps stomach flat and improves stamina for sport & shagging.
Next work on different muscle groups which are fresh. Do 3 sets of 10 reps each (try setting weight accordingly to make sure you really struggle on last couple of repetitions in your final set [leave a minute gap between each set]) - done to bulk up.
Finally - after you've warmed down - make sure you eat LOTS. Try focusing on protein based foods such as racks of ribs or chicken. Later (not too late tho) have some carb + protein based food to give your mind and body energy for the next day. Never eat late tho, or you'll get fat (also bad for metabolism).
P.S. yes there are two types of muscle - slow and fast twitch. Slow is endurance muscle and fast twitch is very strong but eats up juice. This is why you sometimes get scrawny ppl who are quite strong but get tired easily (& vice-versa).

let me guess your 15 and doin GCSE sports  ur teacher is teaching you all wrong. 30 reps of 10 wont bulk you up. 805 of your maximum load as many times as you can = will bulk you up. and it's carbohydrates you should have before exercising..... as much as you can really. |

what's the point in doung a set number? you should do whatever your body can do.

I don't know exactly what you're asking but doing a certain amount of sets with low reps / heavy weight has the best effect on hypertrophy (muscle growth).
To the original thread starter (and anyone else), don't listen to anyone here. If you're serious about lifting go to a forum or website dedicated to bodybuilding/powerlifting and read the articles/posts there.
I recommend http://forum.bodybuilding.com/ for a ton of information. Read the sticky's and use the search function.
I would also like to mention http://exrx.net/Lists/Directory.html
It has a good list of different exercises for different muscle groups.
Good luck.

Funny you should be talking about working , I just started AGAIN last week. Instead of worry how much your lifting you should worry more about technique. This is how I workout
1 set to failure
4 seconds up 4 seconds down
12 reps {add more weights when able to do 15 reps, legs 15/20 reps}
work out your whole body as quickly as possible 45 min
no need for cardio with this workout, unless your fat :]
One mother of a hard work out, try it, its supposed to grow your mucsles the fastest, but most people can't hack the intensity though. do a google on a good routine on 1 set to failure. enjoy

There's a limit, your muscle can hurt, but not too much!

Cartoon is right. Your goal is to make like small cracks in your muscles. When your muscles hurt, that means you've totally outdone yourself, your muscles are destroyed. When this happens you need to know two things:
1. Eat well (eggwhites is what you need)
2. Do not do anything with those muscles for 48 hours unless it's very light training.
The eating part is very important because if you don't eat well those muscles wont really recover, they don't grow. Also, do give it 48H of rest, time to recover.... or your muscles simply wont grow at all..... Some people think it's good to train everyday, everyday the same muscle groups, they are fucking themselves up real nice.
