    why bother going back to train something like biceps?

    I can see AM/PM if you did cardio and then weights or something meaningful, but going back for bicesp seems silly and a waste of time to me.

    just FYI, most of the shit in magazines is ghost written and that isn't what the pros do anyway.

    even that. is their a need to go back and train shoulders? If you are doing things properly, shouldn't it be done in one session? what is the point of going back? you don't grow in the gym anyway.

    your shoulders work when you do incline bench press (which i catergorize as a vertical press also).

    any pressing movement works the shoulders. stop thinking like a bodybuilder. We are humans - we move. We are not robots. Things are compartamentalized and isolated as bb'ing lore would have you believe.
