The Maksim Chmerkovskiy injury absence has been sorely felt by Dancing With the Stars die-hards, which makes the dancing pro's shirtless snap signaling the drought is over that much sweeter.
"This Monday @dancingabc @heatherrelizabethh #teamMaksimumHeat #IWillNeverLiveThisDown #FarmerTanGameStrong," the 37-year-old heartthrob captioned the shot.

Farmer tan or not, we're just happy to have you back!
Chmerkovskiy will make his return to the ballroom floor on Monday with dancing partner, Heather Morris. The dancing pro's calf injury, which he sustained during rehearsals, has kept him sidelined since late March. In his place, troupe dancer Alan Bersten has been dancing alongside Morris.
