Hi, I'm 17 years old about 5'2 and 112lbs, and currently I do, for biceps:

2 sets of 12-Bicep Curls (free weights) (total 30lbs)
2 sets of 12-Preacher Curls (total 30lbs)
12 hammer curls (total 30lbs)

I do these 3x a week, am I doing too much, too little, or am I on the right track? Thanks

OK, first off 2-3 x per week is great! hopefully your doing a all body program, some people perfer to work 1-2 body parts a day, but its really best to train every body part for a even workout. There also is no certain # of sets or reps you "should" be doing, if your goal is to lose weight, get stronger and change your body the best way to achieve this is to lift a weight that is heavy enough "fatigue" your muscles between 8-12 reps. Starting at 2 set is good for each exercis you do, 3 might make you sore for a week or so but it's a good goal to work up to, then work up slowly to 4 or 5 on "some " exercises. The whole key is dedication, slow unjerky movements, breathing correctly. And remember you need to change your routine, follow a routine for 6-8 weeks and then do something different, even if its just switching the order of what your doing.;)

From my own experince I think that you must adapt the weight to your compabilties.
U have difrent trainings for difrent purposes if you want to gain mass.
Than what I do I take 3 series and each one I put on additoanl weight.
My reps are 12 10 8
And the last one should be they you barely make it.
Hope it helps.
