Can you advise on a good gym program for a menopausal overweight lost cause?!

I've recently joined a council gym and the programme given by to me by the guy that inducted me was a but half hearted!

I'm about 1.5st overweight. I need to do some strength training to improve overall and core strength and bone density. I also need to do some exercises to help tone up to complement the healthy eating plan I'm about to start!

Can anyone give me advice or direct me to a good programme on line that I can follow?

3 hours of weightlifting a week. Push day, pull day, legs (and abs) day. Like the example plan here
