You can add others to that, but if you work a program around (most of) these it may help, and also workout those legs too!
The above was what I started with, with Leg Presses and Calf Raises added. But going 3 times a week should be more than enough. As long as your lifts are increasing with what you're doing you probably don't need to make many changes though.

Excellent advice for those who only have a few days each week to workout. Adding another leg exercise (leg press or weighted step-ups) and maybe another chest (pushups or incline bench) will be good if you have the time. If your time is limited don't waste it on isolation movements!
