    6 weeks is a bit quick for a change up, I would give it up to 12 weeks as long as your making gains. At that point, change it up.

    If your making gains - stick w/it... I've gone from two BPs to one now(due. To the type of training I'm doing)... If your not satisfied in 8-12(max) wks then yes I agree w/above and drop and change up either your rep range(you have to see how & what your body responds to best! It'd be insane to do the same thing and expect different(good) results! Some like high volume and grow - some Heavy weights and low reps(I believe one should use both higher/& lower rep ranges as well) they've got there places for sure... Also your intensity is key(you want to keep it as high as possible(unless your a PL) but intensity is something that can/will make or break a session and routine!

    I used to do shoulders w/legs.... B/c I've got bad shoulder issues - but I was told it's not that great - think of it like this - you probably work legs first... So being the big muscles that your legs are - all your blood flow is in your legs - then on to delts(no way you vpcan get that type of blood flow you've gotten in the legs up to your delts now) - make sense? Your short changing one of them by which ever you start with!

    I now do
    Arms(bis/tris together)
    Delts/traps
    Off
    Either Back/or Chest depending on my shoulder(for pressing - why I like coming off a rest day for any pressing moments)
    Again either of the one above
    Legs
    And I usually do 2on 1off - I've found that I respond well to that split
