    The other day was leg day but really wanted to hit shoulders too. So I did and it was a brutal but very fun workout. I’ve started to get more free and Floyd with my exercise routines as opposed to the old school ridged you need to have a chest day, leg day and so on.
    I completely agree with what you and Alpha Mindz are saying as to the instinctual training part, and while I tend to the same thing, I have to be careful that my shit doesn't turn into:
    Chest
    Arms

    Arms
    Chest & Arms

    I hear that lol,

    I love doing legs, my problem is that I tore my groin muscle 2 years ago and it’s extrmemly moody. So sometimes I can only do light light weight but with tons and tons of reps.

    Fuck if I know, might have been at the same time. I can’t pin down when I tore it.

    You have no idea how bad I want to squat 315 for reps of 10 again. That’s all I want as far as weight goals.

    Lol no doubt bro that is a good point, but that's only going to be the case with a younger minded individual who doesn't have clear cut goals. That thinking actually reminds me of myself when I was in my early twenties cause I did exactly that lol! I prob hit bench press 3 times a week during that time cause that was the most important thing to me. I'll tell you what though, I got really good at benching lol! I was getting 245 on incline for reps and that was pre- steroids so not bad at all, BUT I did end up injuring my shoulder cause I didn't warm up on properly and that injury still bothers me to this day.

    So, I guess the takeaway is you wanna listen to your body and give extra attention to the muscle groups you want to stimulate growth in. IMO the best way to bring up a lagging body part is to train them with lots on intensity, LESS volume and MORE frequently. We're all different but that's what works for me.

    Having freedom in your routine allows you to get in tune with your body and IMO you will ultimately build a much more symmetrical physique that way. If one just sticks to a predetermined "schedule" then they're training everything pretty much the same amount and I don't feel like that's the best way to build a balanced physique. Some muscles are naturally going to need more attention than others IMO so when someone is ready to be a bit more "advanced" then I highly recommend this approach.. But I do agree with what you're saying...One needs to have a vision and the proper goals to achieve that vision!
