Answer 1

Most reputable gyms can make a specialized program for you, but "Total Football Fitness" is a good and thorough introduction to weightlifting and advanced cardio for soccer as well some diet notes

Answer 2

at 16, your the perfect age to start training with weights id say

go to bodybuilding.com - its not all about getting massive

it has alot of different and interesting articles on actually developing the muscles for football players amongst other sports

my advice to you is to do alot of core work to keep your upper and lower body coordinated

good luck, im also looking to do the same
