Depends on what you're training.
For example, I have a shoulder injury so I do the famous rotator cuff exercises first when doing upperbody.
For legs I like the start with light leg extensions to warm up my knees, even though if my first exercise is squats. I just can't get into the groove with first set of light squats without the leg extensions.
General speaking: start light with the first exercise you're about to do.

 Stretch for a few minutes, then jump rope for a few minutes until you're warmed up.

Never stretch before a warm, never sprint before a warm up.

 Never stretch before a warm up? Are you serious?

 You think a person needs to be warmed up before stretching?

Yes, if you want to lower risk to injury you do.

 Go into a yoga studio and tell them that.

 They'll laugh in your face.

 Either way is good.

 But there is definitely nothing wrong with going right into the stretching. You just start out with light stretching and gradually keep stretching further.

 It's not good to do extreme stretching while your muscle are cold. But starting off with some moderate stretching is very, very safe if you stretch regularly and are flexible.

 A warm up before stretching does help you go right into the deep stratches though I guess. The Cooch has a good point there.

 There's nothing gay about yoga.

 I know some yoga routines that you wouldn't be able to handle. You'd be gassed out on the floor guzzling water, all fucked up.

 Some types of yoga are very difficult and brutal.

I dont disagree.  However, when discussing how to warm up, you looked to yoga for the answer and that is gay and you are outed.

 OK sure bro, you got me.
