Sorry about the layoff - but yes, definitely use it to your advantage if you want some quality gym time!
Hard to give specific advice - what do you want to do w/ your time off right now? Specific goals like build 10 lb of lean muscle? Lose bodyfat? Prep for a competition?
For a really great & not boring program, take a look at the Shadow Project on the "Are you new to EF Ladies' Board - START HERE!" stickie at the top of the board. The Shadow Project link is in the first couple paragraphs.
