    Haha oops soz lol, just said you look like one, not that you are haha, I'm from the city!

    That's a whole lot of spin classes/week
    IMO I think you could fix up your training routine! But I don't know what your day would consist of (are you on uni hols?), I'm sure others will chime in but I would do a 3 day split! Let your PT know what your goals are, he should be getting you into some compound movements and less on the machines!

    Depends on if you want to keep doing upper body and lower body workouts, or you could do a push and a pull workout, which may work better for you, since you want to focus on your back and shoulders etc

    For a full upper body try this:
    Lat pull down or assisted pull ups 8-12 reps, make sure your struggling to get 10 (remember the last few reps is what you will get your results from!) PUUuSSSsHHhH!! Do 3 sets + your warm up set
    Superset every set with barbell curls for bis!

    Rear delt row (cable/machine/smitch machine/DBs/barbell) doesn't matter how you do it. Do 3 sets, really contract your traps when doing this! ( with exercises like pull ups, rows, etc, don't fully extend your arms, it takes the pressure off your back and works your bis, keep a slight bend in them.
    superset every set with some shrugs, or reverse grip cable curls (on a straight bar)

    For chest
    dB press or barbell press (do flat, or incline) same sets and reps, super set with the fly machine SQUEEZE at the top/end of the movement, on the press don't lock out your arms as it takes the pressure off your chest!

    for shoulders
    DB shoulder press or clean and press or even seated smith machine shoulder press (there are many ways to do an exercise)
    Superset with bench dips a proggression for you is to try putting your feet up on another bench and add weight to your lap!

    Next you can do some DB side lateral raises and super set it with tricep rope pull downs! If your shoulders are F'd just do the pull downs

    This is a pretty full on workout, prepare to huuurt for the next 2 days
    This should take roughly 45mins, the more quicker/intense the better!

    I will put up a push/pull split for you tonight if no one has done one for you!

    Here's an example of a push/pull workout, I've just edited my last post

    Day one pull

    Lat pull down or assisted pull ups 8-12 reps,
    I would even go for 2-3 behind the head and 2-3 infront (go all the way to your upper chest)

    Rear delt row (cable/machine/smitch machine/DBs/barbell) doesn't matter how you do it, (I like cable rows).
    Then do 2 sets of bent over DB rows

    Dead lifts!

    And 1-2 exercises for your bis, depending on how you feel! BB curl, reverse grip hammer curl, rope curl etc


    Day 2 push day, you can have a rest day inbetween if you like

    dB press or barbell press (do flat, or incline)

    Flys

    DB shoulder press or clean and press or even seated smith machine shoulder press (there are many ways to do an exercise)

    DB side lateral raises

    Tricep dips
    Tricep rope pulldowns

    Abs

    Hope this gets you started!

    Try both workouts and see what you like best depending on your time etc
