This.
Also, how many hours a week do you have for this?
The first step here is cleaning up your diet. That’s the biggest issue if you are carrying around a lot of extra fat.

Do any basic PPL or Upper/Lower program.

Anyone have any good app or online options for this? I’ve had a personal trainer before and I know form when lifting weights, I just want to turn my brain off and have an app tell me what to do.

Classes at a gym or a personal trainer.

I wouldn’t start with cardio before you lift. Save the cardio for after lifting.
You should do a basic push, pull and leg program workout 3-4 weightlifting and 1-2 days rest/cardio(walking is underrated). Remember it’s about recovery and nutrition more than workout.
Push - Incline bench press, pectoral fly, hammer grip press, shoulder fly, seated shoulder press and triceps press.
Pull - Bent over rows, lat pulldown, seated lat pulldown, hammer curls, spider curls, preacher curls
Legs - Squat, leg press, calf raises, ab leg lifts
Cardio after lifting - incline treadmill 3-4mph for 10-15 minutes max

I resumed working out this summer, and it’s been 5 weeks. I’ll go to the gym and begin with 2 miles on the elliptical, and then I’ll do the weight machines: my “program” thus far is just randomly choosing 4 machines and doing 3x10 sets.
I feel great and I’ve noticed some clothes fitting me better, but I really want to sustain this and have a better game plan when I go to the gym. Can anyone recommend a workout routine or app I should look into that will give me more direction based on my goal of losing weight while looking good with my shirt off (lol)?
Thanks!

Peloton strength, with the Hardcore plan, which you can find on the Hardcore on the Floor Facebook group.
AI, per previous poster, is an excellent idea.
But why don't you go to something like Orange Theory or Solidcore. Then you just show up and someone else tells you what do to

It's not complicated: do a mix of pulling (rows/pulldowns or pullup) and pushing (chest/shoulder). Then squats and deadlifts. Repeat for a few years (that's the hard part).
Also this is something that AI is actually good for. There are t thousands of routines on the web. AI can basically just adapt them to your situation.

To add variety and structure at the gym you could incorporate apps like Peloton Strength or Shred.

Does your gym not offer a service where a trainer can help you design a program based on your goals? If not, you can go online and research a few different programs. So much information out there.
