Well I'm not a true beginner, but a beginner to setting up my own routine. I have done bench/squats/etc before, so I'm not truly new to lifting. But this was over 4 years ago and I wasn't 100% dedicated to it. I want to change that.

Guess I'm just sort of looking to see what is out there. From what I gathered when starting out, it's best to do a full body workout 3 times a week, with compound exercises.

Anyone have a general outline or links you think I could look at to get a good idea of what to do? Like how many exercises/sets/reps would you say? Any help appreciated.

Also, since it's been a while, I would still experience beginner gains wouldn't I?

firstly... outline what your goals are. do you want to get big, fit, or just stay healthy?

More towards getting fit than getting big, but certainly would like to put on some muscle/get stronger.
