The simple answer is you are the best person to decide that based on your goal
Weightlifting is good just like eating vegetables is good
But what’s best for you, lifting light, heavy, or medium weights? Let’s say there are two ways to pick the weight:
Heavy weight with low reps .. light weight with many reps
The first way is lifting heavy weight
You can lift your body weight about three to five times when you’re at max effort
Or you can lift 60 to 80 percent of your max effort
I promised you'd do 8 to 15 reps or so
The second way is to lift a light weight
We train, our habits will be from 20 to 30 or more reps you can reach in 45 seconds
I don't get it, should I lift light weight now or heavy weight??
Let's put the question another way, what's the best way to reach my goal??
-
Light weight is better for beginners??
If you're a beginner, start with 1, 2, or 3 kilos, learn the move right and how to do it perfectly in the first week with just your body weight then start using weights from the second week, and after that you can add more weight however you want once you get how the move is done

If I want to tone my body, what should I do??
When you train start by lifting weights with your natural weight. Let the next two sets be more effort than the first one.
-
If I want to get stronger??
-
The only way is to lift heavier weights because lifting helps build new muscle fibers to grow and get stronger.
-
For heart patients which is better for them heavy weight or light weight?
Nothing is hard if you train and get the exercise right. Just start by lifting relatively light weight and get the movement right. Then increase it. Your reps can be between 20 to 30. Most important is breathing right.
Cardio training is important in both cases whether you lift light or heavy weight because it strengthens the heart muscle. You can train your heart by running, swimming, and cycling.

Which is the best choice if I want to be healthy all my life?
Whether you lift heavy or light weight both ways are great for a good healthy life... but let’s be clear people lifting heavier weights and big loads get injured way more.
Most girls and women are strongest in their twenties, then this strength drops. Always try to lift weights at least 3 to 4 times a week to keep your strength.
