Trap work

[Thatgoodfellow]

My traps are lacking. I never hit them directly just with shoulder work or deadlifts. Will shrugs be enough to get them to grow? What do you guys recommend?

Hard work attacking your traps and eating well, will make them grow. I don’t do shrugs but I do heavy dead’s and mix in some high volume face pulls and rear delt work. Mine grow fine.

Whenever I do heavy farmer carries, my Traps feel pretty good.

I do feel them getting sore after heavy deadlifts but they still don’t seem to get any larger. I guess if I wanted them to grow more I would have to make them more of a focus.

ya you’re right at least until my grip gives out. I will have to incorporate these somewhere. They are good for core, shoulders, grip and traps.

I like doing upright rows.

I have to echo Tinymk... heavy deads are king... heavy dumbbell presses or Viking press puts on the mass as well. Ancillaries: face pulls at different angles, and I’ll add DB shrugs on occasion.
