I damaged my arms so bad a couple weeks ago I had to keep them bent at a right angle for a week and a half and was unable to straighten them. Quit whining.

I dont think its a change of routine that you need, its a change in attitude.  By the sounds of it i doubt that you are cut out for it !  do you think i got as big as i have by whining ? Some people are, some people aren't

We have all experienced something like this.  The first day you lift anything your gonna feel it.  The first day I tried deadlifts, I could not get up for 2 days, and was soar for a week

LOL, this kinda thing happens with everyones first time of lifting, or doing something the body isnt used to, it will go away once your body gets accustomed to lifting

HAHAHAHA i love newb soreness.

I love getting new people to the gym, phoning them 2 days later asking "coming in again?" and they just nearly start crying making excuses why they cant go anymore and how they hurt so badly.

dont worry ian its normal, a warmup wont do any difference, the soreness is your muscles reactions, we all get it, but newbs get it worse because there body is simply not used to it.

Wait until you do your first deadlift, oh you wont be able to walk probably ROFL.

I've had that too - it's horrible. Try wiping your backside.

Try this for your biceps
 
warm up- 40lbs 10reps x 3 sets
load bearing- 50 3reps x 2 sets
lift - 60 lbs 6reps x 3 sets
 
Rest one day and if your in pain, do it on the second day after and stretch it out.
 
I currently:
warm up-  70lbs 10x3
load bearing- 90x3x1, 100x3x1
train at- 110x6x3
 
proper warm up will save you some pain.

Yeh that was a nightmare, you have to twist, get a quick wipe and then do it again.
