To have the weight of the world on your shoulders means that your commitments have you under pressure.

This expression comes from the Ancient Greek Titan Atlas, who was forced to literally carry the world on his shoulders.

Is working chest out the day after working out shoulders bad?

I have also been confronted with this dilemma. I belive that it is not ideal to workout chest after working out shoulders because your shoulders definetely assist in bench pressing. If your shoulders are sore/weak from the previous days workout, then they could hinder you from putting up as much weight on the bench as normal. Thus your chest will not get a hard workout because your shoulders will give out before your chest. So, I would say work out chest first then shoulders. Although your shoulders might be slightly worn from assisting in the bench pressing, they will still have a lot left to get a good workout in. Also, then they will have been worked out extremely hard.
