    well, i guess everyone is different, like i said try out different approaches to see what works best, mine are huge and I rarely work on my traps, but then again the are your back muscles and i may hit them while working on my back....

    mine used to lag behind until i started really hitting them,concentrating on feeling the muscle.my trap workout is after shoulders and it looks like this:
    db shrugs 3 x 12-25
    behind back bb shrugs(smith machine)3 x 8-12
    high pulls w/rope on pully(use on high setting like doing a row but standing and pulling to your chin squeezing your traps together)3 x 12
    alternate these w/db upright rows from week to week

    remember.your set should come to failure because the muscle failed not because the weight is to heavy..the weight should never be too heavy to prevent you from feeling the muscle working,these guys that think they are shrugging 405# couldnt do 1/2 that if done properly..i'm 255# at 8%bf...275 is the most i use,any heavier i cant feel the muscle working.
