I prefer to think in terms of. . .
Primary: Deadlift, Squat, Bench Secondary (assistance): Stiff-legged deadlift, Press, Triceps and Biceps Detail (accessory): Abdominals, forearms, calves and NECK |

I disagree with the assignment of the "detail" group.
~Deads with a weak grip (forearms). ~Deads with weak traps. ~Squats and/or Deads with a weak core. ~And I feel that calves play a major role in balance and stability when preforming Squats and/or Dead. I feel that should be two groups, Primary and Secondary. Just my 2 cents.

Good thoughts.
I would move shoulders and hamstrings to primary, and probably would just have a secondary. I don't see biceps any more important than traps or calves.

My experience is nothing compared to all of yours, but I think of it like...
Primary...Legs, Back, Chest Secondary...Shoulder, Arms, Calves, Core But I can be ignored since I'm a rookie

I don't get breaking them up in this way at all.
To goal (to me) is to look wide (from the front/back) and thick (from the side). Wide = back (traps, too), shoulders, quads Thick = chest, back (to an extent), hammies I don't see the need to separate traps from your back.

Primary: the body
It works as a unit, stop messing with it.

I understand the division. I look at my training as such, primary (main) and secondary (accessory) lifts, not body parts.
