I got a Home gym and need a workout routine

Options
I just got a Marcy home gym for $250 at Academy this weekend. I am sooo excited to use it and get strong and hopfully lose this last 15pounds of fat.
Could someone give me a workout routine to do on it...? I'm totally new to strength training. I'm a cardio junkie but everyone says I need to focus on strength now. My legs are my insecure area too since I'm a pear shape.

    I need to see what it looks like...but IMO you wouldve been better off with two dumbbells.

    See how you can incorporate this workout with your new machine. It is where I started.

    Also, the cable function looks pretty good, if the cable actually extends a nice distance. Lunges with isolateral chest press, squats with rowing motions, step ups, high knee shoulder press.

    look up thederrickprice on you tube for some full body cable workouts, with these you can raise your heart rate and produce strength training.
