umm
Probably want to cross reference stuff.

new rules of lifting for women is a book that people seem to enjoy

If you are a beginner you really don't need to do a split routine. Don't bother with isolation exercises, stick with compound stuff. Squats, bench presses, dips, pull-ups. Make sure you get your form down.

Had the same exact question a month or so ago. A strength trainer put out a post that he would answer questions, so i asked. His answer was this:
Start with
Chest press, assisted chin lifts, squats and planks. Do these in a circuit fashion. Do both strength and cardio for best results.

This ^ got me going. Then I started hitting strength and core classes. That gave me ideas too. And I added them. As I learn more, I do more.
Hope this helps!

I'm not sure if this would help at all, but my trainer gave me this this week:
(not including cardio):

Plank Holds :30 seconds each with 30 second rest

bicep curls to press: 3sets of 15 reps with weights of your choice (I chose 4kilogram (8pounds-ish) (curl the weight up then raise it above your head and back down again) (free weights)

chest presses: 3 set of 15 (weights alternate but you want to feel pretty exhausted after a set!) (on a machine)

Seated rows: 3 sets of 15 (same as above) (on a machine)

I also do hundreds (pilates move), abdominal crunches, bicycle kicks and crossover crunches (free form)
