    Doing back and shoulders can be somewhat of a intense day and because of that one or more part may not get the focus it needs and fall behind. Think of it this way; you have three separate delt heads and unless your training shoulders twice a week I recommend doing two exercises per head. Two for the front delt, two for the side, and two for the rear. And with back there is such much to work on. You need to be doing exercises for width i.e. wide grip pullups. Also you need to be doing exercises to bring up the thickness in your back i.e. t-bar rows. Usually about 4-5 exercises with variations on what its doing is what I would recommend. Two to widen your back and two or three to help thicken your back. And now you've got to do your traps and the two exercises i recommend would be behind the back shrugs and dumbell shrugs. Now this is what worked for me. Someone might tell you different. It takes time to figure out what works best for you. Shoot I've been at this for five years and I'm still learning what is best for me. It'll take time and there is never enough info you can learn. Here is a good program to help you along and you can add the exercises your self

    DAY 1 Chest and Calves (Mon)

    DAY 2 Back (Tues)

    DAY 3 Off ( W ed)

    DAY 4 Shoulders and Calves(Thurs)

    DAY 5 Arms and Forearms (Fri)

    DAY 6 Legs (Sat)

    DAY 7 Off (Sun)
