Back/shoulders back-to-back?

[blinKme431]

I work back on wedsnesday and shoulders on thursday...is this overworking, especially if I'm doing a barbell row and then a rear delt row?

What does your back workout and shoulder workout look like? Also, what is your split in general?

[blinKme431]

Shoulders:
-2 sets military press
-2 sets arnold press
-3 sets upright rows/lateral raises
-3 sets rear delt exercise (haven't really decided on a good one yet, but I may just do barbell rows to the neck)

Back:
-3 sets deadlifts
-3 sets pullups (assisted or on my own, depending on when in the workout)
-3 sets barbell row to bellybutton

My split:

mon-off
tues-chest
weds-back
thurs-shoulders
fri-off
sat-arms
sun-legs

back has nothing to do with shoulders... so why worry

[blinKme431]

what? Wouldn't any rowing motion use BOTH rear delts AND back to some degree? I also know for a fact that pullups use rear delts a little.

your working the rear delt in the same workout. So it doesnt matter if you hit it twice in your workout. Its not like your hitting it one day and then again the next. dont worry about it.

Maybe you didn't read the original post, but it's NOT in the same workout. Back one day, shoulders the next day.

Should be fine. Yeah, exercises like rows may hit your rear delts to an extent, but the delts are marely assisting your back, it's not getting all the load/ the same load as your back is. I haven't had any issues in the last 2 years of training back/ shoulders on consecutive days or whatever
