^upright rows and front barbell shrugs. Deadlifts are good in that they really help add mass to your traps, but if you really want to isolate them and make them look cut out and visible, try out some of the exercises i mentioned...

is there a way to target dif. areas of your traps, with dif. shrug variations/trap exercises? or must you work it as a whole and it will grow all together? me n my friends traps r dif mine are taller n bigger closer to my ears (from deadlifting) & his are more built in the area closer/above the shoulder from a front view, this is the area im trying to target, any1 have some insight on this?

Facepulls and best of all in my opinion, cleans.

Sounds like you have higher trap insertions

instantneedles 07-28-2012 10:19 AM

New favourite exercise - Wood choppers with barbell with 2 plates.

People were looking at me wondering wtf I was doing.

hal0g0dv2 07-28-2012 11:03 AM

Get a 45 plate hold it right with one hand
Go over to the squat rack with free hand and grab the rack and lean over and then shrug with the hand with the weight
This will do the top part of traps

I'd say wrist wraps and a good ol' barbell shrug will do the trick. Your forearms may not be getting a workout as well, but your not targeting your forearms in this exercise. Been doing this for a while and its worked very well, try it out!

yellowpower 07-28-2012 01:13 PM

Oh and no pussy weight with the wraps either

hal0g0dv2 07-28-2012 03:12 PM

Yeah that's exactly what I do. Imo if you're working on shrugs and tryna develop it traps that way, straps really help prevent any instability from gripping heavier dumbbells. Cus of u don't have the straps, I'll probably be settling for a lower weight and will be working on it forearm strength more so than your traps.

you know you losing weight (i guess dat 30min intense cycle sesh paid off) when your doctor lifts your shirt up to check your lungs but first says " did you lose weight " ? :accepted:

I think you mean lifting straps? Wraps are the ones that go wrap around your wrist for support.

greg plitt had plates that looked the same on that 5 plate bench but no way those are real lol, coming out of the hole looks like nothing

SkinnyPupp 07-28-2012 07:59 PM

bar isn't bending either, looks like maybe 1 plate per side is real, maybe 2
