I think it should be noted in the "Weight Training 101" that a person who has never weight lifted should not jump right into it. I think it should be suggested that a person use light weights with high reps (15-20) to get there form down, work on there balance, and strengthen the core. There should be a warm-up/ cool-down session also. In the end this should benefit alot more then jumping into Squatting and Benching. I think this also will limit the "Squat form" questions too. What do you all think?

Those are good points, but may have been left out as being "too obvious". I can remember starting (many moons ago) and lifting empty bars so I could get SOME form going. Absolutely agree on the warmup and stretching parts!!

Actually, they are not really too obvious. Some people out here squat, bench; and probably have bad form on almost all other major weight lifting exercises and don't even realize it. I used to squat full range, and my back was arched, my knees wen't past my toes, and I didn't go down with my hips. Good thing I have a trainer now that showed me the correct form.

I had the percentage lower (than 70%), but it was changed by another mod so I'll leave it. And I noted that form should be perfected. If you delay squating, then you only delay the form questions. They're inevitable, unless you never squat, then you're not following the routine anyway.

Also there is only so much that can be covered before a sticky becomes an ebook.

For a sticky it is beyond informative and impressive advice and guidelines. It is meant to be a starting point, not a gospel.
