if you're wanting to lose weight you're better to do more CV work like running/cycling/swimming ect.

If you're wanting to build muscle concentrate on lifting the heaviest you can (without killing yourself obviously). It's better for you to do say 10 reps of 40 - then take a break - then do another 10 than it is to do 30 reps of 20 (or whatever).

And remember that all of this is pointless without a healthy diet.
