When I was first learning how to exercise, at the advice of a friend, I went out and bought Weights for Dummies. This tape has 12 basic exercises on it. Squat, Lunge, Pilea (spelling), push ups, sit ups, obliques, arm, chest and back exercises. I started out doing it with 3 lb weights and worked my way up from there. I think it's a great tape to get the basics down and make sure you are doing it correctly. I am sure you can find this at Walmart, I think that's where I got it.

The FIRM also has a lot of tapes that focus on all areas of the body for toning. The FIRM tapes move pretty quick and can be kind of complicated the first few runs through if you aren't used to exercising, but very very well worth the effort.
