Any other good trap exersizes?

[Gaspari1255]

I usually do BB shrugs and superset with DB. Then, I finish them off with a behind the back BB shrug. Any other ones I could do?

shrugs dont work for me.....UPRIGHT ROWS all the way....make sure to pull high enough where your elbows go above your ears...

2 sets of bb shrugs working towards your max. Then 3 max sets and drop set the last. Last set should contain no more than 15 reps. Burn that shit up man.

The two main ones are shrugs and upright rows.


deadlifts, overhead pressing movements, clean & press, and high pulls also stress the traps somewhat.

every now and then I go to a calf machine and instead of doing calf raises I shrug on it.... do that for a variation once in a while along with what others said on the thread.

Heavy deadlifts, shrugs and upright rows is all you need for big traps
