OP, i was in your situation exactly a year ago. 5'11 70kg.
I started off doing home workouts last august doing pushups, situps and pull-ups (if you don't have a pullup bar, GET ONE NOW).
I was quite consitent with these workouts and saw small gains, particularly in my abs.
This past January I joined a gym and not knowing what to do, I used the routine provided for me by a personal trainer which consisted of machines. Did this until early April, also with some small gains.
In April I switched to my own programme based on what I had read on the internets (tnation, bodybuilding.com, /fit/, stronglifts.com, etc.) composed of free weights and compound exercises. Have seen by far the most gains with these.
So I suggest starting off light with the home stuff until you feel sufficiently confident and motivated to go to a gym and start doing free weights (ignore any and all machines). It's been a year and I'm quite satisfied with my results.
