Tasi,
Why do you say no more than 20 lb? If you are worried about big muscles you shouldn't be. Most women would have to work out many hours per day like body builders to become bulky!! You should put enough weight on a machine so that after 10 to 15 reps you can no longer perform the move with good form. That is what builds muscle and tones your body. You can do lots of reps if you are also working on endurance, but it's going to take a long time to adequately fatigue your muscle.
