Weight training

Alex Flint

I'm looking for resources on effective weight training for the purpose of physique building. It's an area with a particularly poor signal to noise ratio so I would value pointers from other rationalists. The kinds of questions I would like to answer are:

How to structure work-outs. Should I lift as much weight as possible or do more repetitions at lower weights?
How should I trade off frequency of gym visits against length of those visits?
What supplements should I take?

Edit: I'm vegetarian, and I now realise this is rather important to answers to point three. So far the only supplement I've been taking is soy protein.

I've actually only been at this a few months, so all I have is some dumbbells. Kinda surprising the range of exercise that I've been able to get out of them. I'm considering getting more equipment, but I don't have a lot of room to store it. If I do I'll probably start with craigslist.
