For example if for some reason you haven't worked out at all for a week or two or perhaps even a month, the very first day you get back to gym, what do you like to do?
-Do you go back to your set routine prior to the break?
- Do you start off by doing your favorite body parts so as to get back into a training mindset?
-Do you do light circuit training or full-body training to get back into the flow?
-Do you go hard and heavy?
-Do you like to check your 1 rep max on major lifts for the first week of training etc?
For me personally, if I haven't had a chance for some reason to not work out for at least 3-5 days in a row, I like to start my first day back to workout by doing barbell snatches or db snatches and lift until I reach my 3 or 1 rep max. I just feel that the shock and blast of a compound movement that targets virtually all the muscles in my body is a good way to prime my muscles and mind back to a proper workout regimen.
