I?m 14.I now have a weight set up to 40 pounds. I want to build some muscle what weight would be the best for building muscle and how many reps should i do?
It actually depends on how long you have been working out and what you can comfortably work with.
When I was in the military the rule of thumb was this:
heavy weight+low reps=bulk
light weight+ high reps=cut/definition
For example:
Method One
HIGH/HEAVY WEIGHT WITH LOW REPS=BULK
If you decide to work out with a weight which may feel a little heavy your repetition and sets will be low. i.e. arm curls, 15lbs. of weight. you may only be able to do 5 curls at a time. Those 5 curls will be considered "a set" so you will have lifted a total of 75lbs in one set. But, each curl is considered a "rep"(repetition). Hence, 3 sets of 5 would be a total of 15 reps, and total weight would be calculated as:
15lbs.x5reps x 3sets for a total of 225lbs. OR 15lbs. x 5reps=75lbs.x3 sets=225lbs
This method will give you bulk and beef.
Method Two:
LIGHT WEIGHT WITH HIGH REPETITIONS
If 5lbs. is light to you, then you may be able to do 15 curls at a time. Then your "One Set" would consist of 15 reps(repetitions), and if you can do three sets of these it would be calculated as :
5lbs. x 15reps=75lbs x 3sets=225lbs. or 5lbs. x 15reps x 3sets=225lbs.
This method will give you cut and definition.
So, it isn?t so much in how "MUCH" weight you work with, but, "HOW" you work with it!
If you had an identical twin, who ate the same as you and worked out with the same amount of pounds as you, but he chose "Method One" and you chose "Method Two"; Than the both of you would have two different types of body styles.
The method you choose depends on what you want to do or be in life. If you want to maintain your speed and flexibility, you may not want to bulk up. However, if you want the body that will slow others in being quick to mess with you than you would want to sacrifice speed for security.
In any case, stay dedicated and natural to yourself. Stay away from steroids they will shorten the length of the manhood in your pants, as well, cause irreversible damage to your health. (I am not kidding!)
