All the above advice is sound, but i think technique is the most important, especially for someone just starting to try to build muscle mass. The supporting muscles will have to build up and fall in line, of course, but technique also helps that. Having the barbell slightly too high or too low, or not going through the full motion will weaken the building effect.
Try to make sure you don't do cardio on the same day you lift. Aerobic excercise will tend to prevent muscle gain, to some degree.
Diet is also important. A lack of protein intake will make it very hard to have noticable muscle gains, as protein is VITAL to muscle production.
