    Here's a nice and simple "getting back to basics" routine that's a Monday-Wednesday-Friday split. Simple, core exercises that are the most efficient. This routine isn't about the pump or anything too fancy, just living heavy and trying to lift heavier.

    MONDAY - Push Day
    *Bench Press: (true pyramid) 12-8-6-2-6-8-12
    *Military Press: 3 sets of 6-10 reps
    *Close Grip Bench: 3 sets of 6-10 reps
    *Weighted Dips: 3 sets of 6-10 reps

    WEDNESDAY - Leg Day
    *Squats - (true pyramid) 15-12-8-4-8-12-15
    *Leg Press - 3 sets of 6-10 reps
    *Glute/Ham Raises - 3 sets of 4-8 reps
    *Stiff Leg Deadlifts - 3 sets of 8-12 reps
    *Box Step-Ups - 3 sets of 10-15 reps
    *Selected Calf Exercise - 3 sets of 12-15 reps

    FRIDAY - Pull Day
    *Deadlifts from low pins - (true pyramid) 12-8-5-2-5-8-12
    *Pull-Ups - 3 sets of however many reps I can manage at that time
    *Chinups - 3 sets of same rep restrictions
    *Barbell Rows - 3 sets of 10-12 reps
    *Good Mornings - 3 sets of 10-12 reps

    The Doggcrapp routine is also, traditionally, a MWF split, but I find myself thinking that it's not the most appropriate back into the swing of things split, though maybe it is. It is CERTAINLY something to train with an eye towards however.
