Stretching before lifts isn't such a good idea. Check out the stretching sticky for more info.
I got started after sophomore year wrestling (my first year). The captain took me and another kid to the gym. We did, like, bench press, incline bench, and curls, or something. No lower body whatsoever, but we spent a lot of time on curls. After junior year I joined here and started learning all of the many things I was doing wrong. I started SS and jumped up like 20lbs within a month - obviously not all muscle but the beginner gains were enough to get me hooked. At least partially I owe this site a huge thanks for helping me get to a state title, actually.
