You can't throw an absolute beginner in the deep end, that's how injuries occour.

I would say the opposite. Why put them on the cable machines and build muscle...only to have them hop onto the barbell, load it up sice theyre strong on the cable machines now, and have no stability. To me that would be more dangerous.
I would advocate using Dumbbells, then barbells, then machines....if you're talking about a complete noobie
