How can I optimize my weight training workout?

Tuesday, July 14th, 2009
a link to the past asked:

My goals are size and strength.

I do both weight training and cardio - alternating 3 days weight training, 3 days cardio, and 1 day rest.

My weight training workout alternates between 3 sets each of two muscle groups, and then doing the same again but through different exercises, for a total of 12 sets per day, not including abs which are included in every weight training session. For example, one day might be 3 groups of BENCH - (quick rest) - CURLS, followed by 3 groups of CHINUPS - (quick rest) - FLYS.

Sets normally consist of about 12, 10, and 8 reps to fatigue.

Also, is muscle soreness a good indicator of resting that group that day?

Does anyone know any good websites for tips and or pictures on weight training for slimming down?
