Guys just needed to find out what would be the best workout routine for TRAPS and Shoulders emphasizing more on TRAPS.. Any input would be appreciated.
I agree with pux888. I wanted to add size to my traps two years ago. i started to do heavy shrugs 1-2 times a week, 5 sets of 10, and those puppies grew. hope you have good wrist straps, cause your going to need them.....
I have stopped doing shrugs about 6 months ago and only do heavy deads for traps now, and just tonight my wife made the comment "your shoulders are big enough now... you can give them a break..." And I too have noticed a better "build" in my traps since..
I'm a huge proponent of deadlift. I used to do shrugs all the time, but switched to heavy deadlift a few months ago. Not only did my traps get bigger, when I decided to do a set of shrugs a couple weeks ago for the hell of it, I did 3 sets on shrugs at 40 lbs more than I was when I traded them in for deadlift.
