In my opinion, I recommend you get back into the Rippetoe programs like you already stated you were... Just try to keep it focused MORE on gaining strength vs. doing more hypertrophy work via rest/pausing or lots of volume.
Coming off of DC Training with the lowered frequency, this program you're going to start should really produce nice results coming out of the gate.
All I was saying in the above posts was that rest/pausing and high volume work is great for hypertrophy, but not good for getting the power you want to increase your big three. After you do the Practical Programming routines, and have come close to your RM's, THAT is the time when you'd probably be best served addressing weak points and adding in some more accessory volume.
