anyway with weights go for low and medium weights and tons of reps, basically you get toned, that way you gain definiton. free weights are ok for this, but not needed, you could technically do most of this from home,
this will seem weird with low weight but since your only 140 should be able to work up a sweat pretty quickly. ten pound weights are good for your hands and then just the bar for anything else basically

i have to disagree with you there. definition is acheived through having low enough body fat that there isn't any noticeable layer of fat under the skin above the muscle. so he needs to do cardio to keep the fat away, and higher weights. preferable something that he can do 10-12 reps of before failure. also, once you're able to do that and your muscles have become accostomed to lifting, start lifting heavier weights that you can do only 6-8 reps of before failure.
low weight/high reps will build muscular endurance. not definition.
