How should I start lifting weights for TKD?

I'm a wimpy 15 year old girl taking taekwondo and I have no upper arm strength. Push-ups are very difficult and I often fail or collapse. What weights should I start with, and how do I 'rank up' in weights, so to speak? How should I go about lifting them, and how often!

Thanks,
Cydney

How could a 14 year old girl grow taller?

I'm a 14 year old girl that's 5"1'. I'm the fourth shortest girl in my grade (among the girls) and my mom has constantly mentioned how I'm not tall enough. What are some ways or methods of making myself taller other than playing basketball?

Also, I'm on a so-called diet, if that would help with anything.

How can I control cravings for bad foods and maintain my weight?

I'm a seventeen year old girl that's five foot five. Right now I weight about 100 pounds. And I really try to eat healthy but I keep having really strong cravings for salty, fatty foods like cheese or chips. I really don't want to be fat or gain any more weight! I feel so guilty with myself because I usually end up eating the bad food. Please tell me how I can stop these cravings. And no I'm not pregnant.

How many times a week should an almost 14 year old girl take a shower?

I would like to know how many times a week should an almost 14 year old girl take a shower. Thanks!
Just to make this clear, this question isn't about me! I've been taking a shower everyday since 6th grade and now I'm in 9th. I'm trying to prove something to my sibling that you need to bathe everyday, not once-twice a week! Thank you for being concerned about me though! These answers are just what i'm looking for thank you!
