At 15 you are still likely to be in development, so I would not advice lifting heavy weights. I started lifting weights at 14 and got a slightly deformed left arm because of it, so I advice from experience.
The simple answer is to start with a 16-18 pound dumbbell set. Start using 4 pounds on each dumbbell and increase the weight about 2 pounds per dumbbell every week. If you feel ok with that then go onto the following adult guide:
Starting - 40% maximum lift - I would do this for two weeks to get muscles working efficiently.
Low intensity - 50% - Do this for the following four weeks.
Moderate intensity - 60% - Have one week break and do this for the following two to
three months
High intensity - 70% - This can be done indefinitely.
Warning do not go above 70% maximum intensity as you risk injury.
Maximum lift is the maximum amount of weight you can lift in one repartition.
Example: Let's say you can lift 100 pounds doing a barbell arm curl, and only lift it once (that would be your maximum lift). Now let's say you want to start at the starting intensity which is 40% of 100 pounds.
40% of 100 pound is 40 pounds.
