But then again, your bicep muscles are always 'suffering' as they never get to lift the weights fresh after your warm-up. How are the arms suppose to grow when they are already pre-exhausted before you start lifting just with those muscles? I would still suggest to do your biceps first at least once a month.

While this is true the biceps still get a decent workout doing the back stuff beforehand. Mine ache after a good back/bicep day. But i do agree 100% that you should not always do it that way. I like to vary my routine often. Every couple of weeks i'll switch up from a 4 day routine (chest/tri, back/bi, legs, shoulders/traps) to a 5 day (chest, back, legs, shoulders/traps, bi/tri). This gives the arm muscles a day of their own in which you can really work on building them.
It also depends on your goals for yourself, whether you are building or toning. If you are building then I would recommend a 5 day routine where every muscle gets the attention it needs, whereas if you are toning you can afford to do a more compressed routine.
