I agree with Pull. One mistake I made (in addition to all of the ones Pull mentions) was listening to other people who knew nothing about lifting. The worst thing is when a group of guys who all have terrible routines/training/ect and they all reinforce eachothers bad habits, then said people start giving advice to newer guys. The newer guys dont know any better and listen.
