    You won't overdevelop traps doing shoulder exercises....

    And just because that is your method of training doesn't mean everyone has to follow it. Some people train the same movement up to 3x or more a week. Which is why there's no place to tell someone...

    So what's the problem here? Straight bar is actually a better exercise anyways.

    You can do this but I disagree that it is what you "should" do. No reason you can't train the same movement 2-3x a week. In fact, that's what training is, getting better at specific movements.

    You mainly just need to learn how to use good posture. You have "trained" your body to use bad posture because you've spent so long using it. Now those neural pathways need to be "retrained" to use...

    That's not an abnormal ratio actually if you train them equally. And those numbers aren't "almost the same" at all, you're front squat is about 85% of your back squat, which is a fairly big...

    Because there's no reason why a natural guy, and likely novice/intermediate range, needs 7 rest days between body parts.

    But hey, do what you want to do.

    Please take this sh*t elsewhere. That routine and the guy who "created" it is the dumbest sh*t ever to disgrace these forums.

    1. Pull ups and chin ups are virtually the same.
    2. Neither one is for bicep work.

    Seems like a silly reason to risk injury racking weight backwards. I'm assuming you rack your squats like that too for the same reason?

    Meh I'd say unless you're a competing BBer you won't even notice a difference in your traps doing shrugs or not, assuming you do the basic compounds like deads and overhead presses as it's impossible...

    Because you'll get more bang for your buck sticking to compound exercises. Most people get plenty trap work from pulls from the floor and overhead presses.

    But if you like what you're doing and...
  • Because you can do anything you want to my man....

    Because you can do anything you want to my man. Just be aware of the repercussions. If you want to do both because you enjoy doing both and don't care so much about reaching advanced/elite status,...

    Sure but you'll be mediocre at one or both. Weightlifting is very sensitive to height/weight ratio and body part size. For example, big biceps are a hindrance when racking a clean. Or gaining size...

    Upright rows are definitely a better use of gym time than lateral raises.

    I wouldn't even worry about your pec development until you can bench 2 plates.

    I agree with this. You need to reach a certain size and strength with the basic lifts before you should even worry about such minor things.
