I always do shrugs on back days as well | Deadlifts do far more for your traps than shrugs, IMO

the only ones i do are behind the back wide grip with a barbell so i get the lower trap part , my traps seem pretty big considering i don't do many shrugs

I'm in ottawa right now for a few months and the only gym I have access to does not have a squat rack...
so I can't do squats...
but they have a smith machine though.
Is that a good enough alternative? I know the smith machine restricts movement and isn't as natural so stabilizer muscles aren't really involved but then a leg press is the same thing eh.
edit
nevermind I found my answer here http://stronglifts.com/squat-no-powe...teinborn-lift/ | |

there is exactly 0 chance in hell i would ever attempt a Steinborn Lift. that looks like a great way to tear your back and knees apart.
