The ideal weight to start with for someone with a low starting fitness level will vary depending on the individual's strength, experience, and body type. As a general guideline, it is recommended that beginners start with a weight that is light enough to perform the exercises with proper form and technique, but challenging enough to create resistance and stimulate muscle growth.

For compound exercises such as squats and deadlifts, a good starting weight for a novice could be around 50% of their body weight. For isolation exercises such as bicep curls and tricep extensions, a starting weight of 5-10 pounds may be appropriate.

It is important for beginners to focus on proper form and technique before increasing the weight. Gradually increasing the weight by 5-10% each week can help to challenge the muscles and avoid plateauing, while minimizing the risk of injury. It is always important to listen to your body and adjust the weight accordingly based on your individual needs and abilities.
