Im not into to lifting my ego (ie I wont handle any weight that I cant control and keep strict form with) but just felt that with a heavier weight I was actaully getting some growth.... maybe its just psycological.

Any adjustments, extra excercises or suggestions would be appreciated. I was thinking about alternating the order of chest and shoulders each week: chest first one week then shoulders first the next ?????
