Hey I have been training for about a year and made quite some progress, I have went from like 140-173 pounds. I like the way my back looks, but I think my chest and shoulders look so damn bad. How do you think I should workoujt my shoulders and chest to make them look better? (Like more upper chest/lower chest etc..)
I can't upload the pic of my back here for some reason, but you can see it on my bodyspace. I think I look much bigger from behind than front.

If you mostly care about looks and you want more size than increase your volume and push down on the weight a bit. (high volume will wear you down, even if it looks like you're putting up b*tch weights, lol). If you do a separate shoulder day just make sure chest/tri day comes first, wouldn't want worn out shoulders holding you back.

If you think your chest is lacking over your triceps then do all of your chest work at the beginning of the workout. Let's say you do 3 chest 3 tri workouts. Do 2 of your chest then do one of your tri and finish your chest off then finish your tris.
Try doing dropsets on your chest workouts like cable Flys and such.

You have a high clavicular insertion from what I can tell in your pic. Your upper chest and overall shoulder girdle will grow best doing overhead pressing. Incline press will be mainly a shoulder exercise for you. Search for the thread "why you may not need incline bench" for more details on that. But incline is honestly a waste of your time. And yes, you can make great gains on only 6-8 reps but i would vary my rep ranges if I were you to prevent stalling.
