      Yes, add a couple sets of shoulders and you are good to go ( incline bench might be enough, if you think your chest needs more work than shoulders)

      because hitting every muscle 2x a week while doing 20+ sets (or w/e volume ur reffering to) is taxing and unnecesary, and would probably= overtraining

      but total volume is the amount of weight lifted multiplied by reps giving you a nice quantifiable breakdown of work done. i meant high volume as moving lots of weight a lot of times throughout the week like when i squatted, Ppressed, cleaned, and did pullups 5-6 days a week with varying weights and intensity levels.

      thats frequency m8, think u mighta got em mixed up =p; frequency would be like hitting every muscle 2-3x a week; volume would be like doing x amount of sets (say 20-25 sets)

      Try this split. Kelechi opara (madtitan) uses it.

      Day 1: back/shoulders
      Day 2: legs/biceps
      Day 3: Rest
      Day 4: Chest/triceps
      Day 5: back/shoulders
      Day 6: legs/biceps
      Day 7: rest
      I add ab work 4 times a week Or whenever i have time. Good luck!
      I add some ab work every day i workout.
