I was taught well in Boot Camp. We warmed up with a series of weird-looking Yoga-like moves: heel and toe walks, squats, hops, lunges, all at a very low intensity level and all interspersed with short jogs (across a basketball court and back.) No aggressive stretching, just light effort, get-the-muscles-moving-and-warm stuff.
It worked and also provided lots of comic relief for the slackers watching from the window above. I still use the routine before a race and it still provokes the occasional "what the hell's he doing" glance and a snicker or two.
