  Train slowly..mystats wasnt that fantastic either when i first started out.It still really isnt that fantastic now.
  
  When i started out i couldnt even rep out 8 reps with 12.5kg/side on the smith machine bench press.
  
  and remember to pyramid the weights up...you must have a mixture of high and low reps.I hate people who insist on only high reps or on low reps.

  mix of high n low rep?care to elaborate?
  
  for each exercise i average do 5 sets or 4 sets depending on how important is the exercise...1st set high rep about 10-18 , then decrease rep as each set goes by until around 9-10..i try to do min of 8 rep for last set
  
  dui ma? or is there a better way?

  you can also try 4-6 reps.Even bodybuilders lift for low reps sometimes.
