ALso, you WILL be very sore for the first few weeks. Even lightly training won't completely combat this. You are subjecting your body to BRAND NEW THINGS. This is goign to take adaptation on your muscle's part. Your first few workouts will cause a lot of soreness. After that, your body will adapt and you will be less sore. This is when you chappenge yourself by upping the weights or lower the reps (with higher weight). But this takes time .. you have to make sure your body is ready and you have PERFECT form.
To help relieve soreness, take a hot bath, drink LOTS of water, do a light workout (even a few un-weighted squats) will help move the lactic acid out and relieve some soreness. Stretching, yoga might help too.
