Look at the basic list of exercises on this forum.
Stick to the big compund movements i.e Deadlift / Squat / Bench Press / Shoulder press. You will utilise every muscle group if you do these and it is proven to pack on the muscle.
But remember that all the work in the gym amounts to nought unless your diet is correct.

I've got one for ya m8 and it works a treat its a 5 set x 5 rep 4 Day Workout Plan, do a light warmup set of each exercise before starting your main workout, go for comfortable weights [no heroics ] to start with and increase slightly every week and remember good form is the key to everything, good luck and let us know how you get on if you do it
