    if uve got big traps u should be able to do it easily
    i usually jus bend my neck back n push my shoulders forward or up
    im jus trying to describe it, ive never needed to find the technique to flex traps it just came naturally
    but i hope my description helps
    i think the principle of the bigger and leaner u r, the easier it is to flex and show off a muscle group

    tilt your shoulders back and then pretend you are doing a shrug that is the best way to get them to pop

    Guess everyone is different. I can slightly roll the anterior heads of my shoulders down, contract the scapulae, and my traps pop right up.

    Ditto.

    It helps when I put on green body paint and shout 'hulk smash' right before though.

    Honest...
