Phreezer made some excellent points regarding shoulder, trap and bi work. For a long time I bought into Poliquins idea of not working shoulders if you do a low of pushing and pulling movements. My delt development was terrible. Once I added in some militaries (or similar), then I was finally able to get some growth there. If you are a PLer and want a big bench, you NEED big shoulders. The main joint during bench is your shoulders and you dont want that to be a weak area. Focus some time on delt/rotator work, add in some direct trap workout and hitting bis 2x/wk with low-moderate volume would be fine.
