Whats the best mixture for a complete newbie to weightlifting? I'm gonna start a program in about a month or so and have had a bit of feedback regarding rhe actual program but have no idea where to start with supplements.

I've seen creatine and whey advertised but have no idea whats the best for me. Also when do I take these, every day, before or after a workout.

Note: I'm 5'8 and about 140 - hence pretty skinny but generally really fit as I play a lot of sport.
